HVAC Cooling Tower Design – From Basics to Advanced

Learn cooling tower types, components, losses & capacity sizing with practical HVAC examples.

What you'll learn
- Understand the fundamentals and working principles of cooling towers used in HVAC systems.
- Identify and explain different types of cooling towers such as induced draft, forced draft, crossflow, and counterflow.
- Perform step-by-step cooling tower capacity calculations including heat load, range, approach, and effectiveness.
- Evaluate various cooling tower losses such as drift loss, blowdown loss, and evaporation loss, with practical formulas.
- Apply design criteria and selection parameters to choose the appropriate cooling tower for specific HVAC applications.

Requirements
- Basic understanding of HVAC systems is helpful but not mandatory.
- Interest in mechanical, HVAC, or building services engineering.
- A calculator or Excel software (for simple calculations and capacity sizing).
- No prior design experience is required – this course starts from the basics and builds up to advanced topics.
