[0002] Closed cooling tower, also known as closed cooling tower for short, is a tower that places a tubular heat exchanger inside the tower. It sprays water onto the surface of the heat exchange tube to evaporate and exchange heat to achieve the purpose of cooling. Because it is a closed cycle, it can ensure that the water quality is not polluted, which well protects the efficient operation of the main equipment and increases its service life.

[0003] The dry-wet dual-purpose composite closed cooling tower in the prior art is equipped with a fan, a fin tube bundle, a water collector, a spray system, a cooling coil, an air inlet grille and a water collection tank from top to bottom. During operation, the medium flows through the fin tube bundle, flows into the cooling coil through the connecting pipe between the fin tube bundle and the cooling coil, and finally flows out from the cooling coil outlet, running continuously. If there is a leak in the fin tube bundle or the cooling coil, it will cause the entire equipment to shut down, affecting the normal operation of the equipment. The operating mode of the existing dry-wet dual-purpose composite closed cooling tower is not convenient for convenient switching according to the outlet temperature, which is not conducive to saving water and electricity.

[0004] In summary, the prior art obviously has inconveniences and defects in practical use, so it is necessary to improve it. Utility Model Content

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown together, the utility model provides a dry-wet dual-purpose composite closed cooling tower, including a cooling tower body, wherein a fin tube bundle 2 and a cooling coil 5 arranged up and down are installed inside the cooling tower body.

[0028] A fan 1 is installed on the top of the cooling tower body.

[0029] A water collector 3 and a spray device 4 are installed in sequence from top to bottom between the fin tube bundle 2 and the cooling coil 5 .

[0030] A water collecting box 7 is provided at the bottom of the cooling tower body, and an air inlet louver 6 is installed on the side wall above the water collecting box 7.

[0031] The bottom of the inner cavity of the water collecting box 7 is connected to the spraying device 4 through a pipeline, and a spraying pump is installed on the pipeline.

[0037] A medium inlet 17 is provided at one side of the top end of the connecting pipe 8 , and a medium outlet 18 is provided at one side of the bottom end of the connecting pipe 8 .

[0038] An air release valve 15 is installed above the inlet pipe of the fin tube bundle 2 and the cooling coil 5, and a drain valve 16 is installed below the outlet pipe of the fin tube bundle 2 and the cooling coil 5.

[0039] The specific working principle of this utility model:

[0040] When the wafer butterfly valves a, b, c, d are in the open state, and the wafer butterfly valves e and f are in the closed state, the fin tube bundle, cooling coil and spray device are all in operation, and the dry and wet operations are synchronized;

[0041] When the wafer butterfly valves a9, b10, and f14 are in the open state, and the wafer butterfly valves c11, d12, and e13 are in the closed state, the fin tube bundle is in operation, and the spray device and the cooling coil are in the stopped state, which is dry operation. At this time, the cooling coil can be maintained and repaired for a short period of time, and this state can be operated for a long time in winter;

[0042] When the wafer butterfly valves c11, d12, and e13 are in the open state, and the wafer butterfly valves a9, b10, and f14 are in the closed state, the cooling coil and the spray device are in operation, and the fin tube bundle is in the stopped state, which belongs to wet operation. At this time, the fin tube bundle can be maintained and repaired for a short period of time;

[0043] When the wafer butterfly valves a9, b10, c11, and d12 are closed, and the wafer butterfly valves e13 and f14 are open, the finned tube bundle and the cooling coil are not involved in the operation and can be overhauled as a whole. The circulating water circulates through the connecting pipe and the water in the finned tube bundle and the cooling coil is drained through the drain valve. This method can also prevent ice from forming in the cooling coil in winter. There are 4 operating modes, which can be switched according to actual needs.

[0044] The cooling tower of the utility model can switch between dry operation and wet operation at any time, and can operate independently. The operating mode can be determined according to the outlet water temperature to save water and electricity. If there is a leak in the finned tube bundle or cooling coil, it can be switched to a finned tube bundle or cooling coil without a leak, and the finned tube bundle or cooling coil with a leak can be repaired for a short period of time without affecting the operation of the system. When shutting down for maintenance, the finned tube bundle and the cooling coil can be cut off, and the circulating water can be circulated through the connecting pipe, and the water in the finned tube bundle and the cooling coil can be drained through the drain valve. This method can also prevent ice from forming in the cooling coil in winter.

[0045] The above is an example of the best implementation of the utility model, and the parts not described in detail are common knowledge of ordinary technicians in this field. The protection scope of the utility model is based on the content of the claims, and any equivalent transformation based on the technical inspiration of the utility model is also within the protection scope of the utility model.
