AI Technical Summary
Longitudinal air vortices exist within high-level water collection cooling towers, affecting heat exchange performance. Existing technologies struggle to effectively eliminate or reduce these vortices, especially as they increase under windless or windy conditions, and the cooling water in the outer zone is prone to freezing in winter.

By arranging guide vanes and support columns around the circumference of the high-level tower, the longitudinal air vortex at the upper edge of the air inlet is eliminated, the air inlet area is increased, and heat and mass transfer is enhanced.
It effectively eliminates longitudinal air vortices inside the tower, increases the wind speed at the edge of the air inlet, enhances heat and mass transfer performance, prevents cooling water from freezing, and improves the operating efficiency of the cooling tower.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of thermal power plants and atomic power plants, and in particular to a high tower with a self-supporting inclined guide roof. BACKGROUND
[0002] High towers are increasingly used in China. With the construction of 1000MW large-scale power plant units in China and the emphasis on thermal pollution of circulating water in coastal power plants, high water collection cooling towers have become a new direction of super-large cooling tower technology development. Compared with conventional natural draft cooling towers, high water collection cooling towers use water collection devices for high water collection, which has the advantages of energy saving and noise reduction.
[0003] According to existing research, under windless conditions, the air flow rate along the height distribution at the inlet of the high tower is relatively uniform, but there is a large longitudinal vortex in the outermost air flow channel of the water collection device region formed between the outermost water collection unit of the high tower and the tower wall, which reduces the air flow rate in this region and the heat and mass transfer in the upper packing zone. Under wind conditions, the air longitudinal vortex in the water collection device region of the windward side of the high tower will gradually increase with the increase of wind speed. The existence of air longitudinal vortex in the high tower will affect the heat transfer performance of the high tower. Therefore, it is necessary to study how to reduce or eliminate the air longitudinal vortex in the water collection device region of the high water collection cooling tower to maximize the cooling performance of the high water collection tower.
[0004] Chinese patent application No. 201910411269.1 discloses a natural draft high water collection cooling tower with internal and external partitioned water collection. The present application combines the air flow field structure characteristics of conventional cooling towers and high towers to design a natural draft high water collection cooling tower with internal and external partitioned water collection. The inner zone uses water collection devices such as water collection inclined plates, U-shaped water collection channels, and water collection channels to collect water below the filler; the outer zone does not set water collection devices below the filler, and the cooling water falls into the tower bottom pool below the filler, i.e. uses the tower bottom pool to collect water. The internal and external partitioned water collection can reduce or eliminate the longitudinal vortex in the high water collection cooling tower, fully utilize the cooling capacity of the filler, and improve the cooling efficiency. This patent takes different water collection measures in the inner and outer zones, which can reduce or eliminate the longitudinal vortex in the high water collection cooling tower. However, this method is prone to freezing of the cooling water in the outer zone in winter, which affects the performance of the high tower, and the analysis is not comprehensive.
[0005] Chinese patent application No. 201810106294.4 discloses a filler capable of eliminating longitudinal vortex and a high-level water collecting cooling tower. The filler capable of eliminating longitudinal vortex is composed of inner ring filler, middle ring filler and outer ring filler. The bottom of the middle ring filler is convex downward relative to the bottom of the inner ring filler, and the bottom of the outer ring filler is convex downward relative to the bottom of the middle ring filler. The convex surface faces the water collecting device. The top of the inner ring filler, the middle ring filler and the outer ring filler is flush. The high-level water collecting cooling tower is composed of a tower barrel, a water remover, a water distribution system, the filler capable of eliminating longitudinal vortex and a water collecting device. The bottom of the outer ring of the filler is convex downward relative to the inner ring, which reduces the space for generating longitudinal vortex in the outer ring water collecting device area of the high-level tower, effectively reduces or even eliminates the longitudinal vortex of the air flow field in the outer ring water collecting device area of the high-level tower, strengthens the heat and mass transfer in the outer ring area of the high-level tower, improves the thermal performance of the high-level tower, and has important value for design optimization and system energy saving. The patent effectively reduces or even eliminates the longitudinal vortex of the air flow field in the outer ring water collecting device area of the high-level tower by changing the structure of the filler layer inside the high-level tower. However, this method requires adjustment of the filler layer, which is not easy to construct, and the structure of the high-level tower body will be affected. SUMMARY
