[0002] The working principle of the cooling tower is essentially the process of heat exchange between circulating cooling water and cold air. The cooling tower is equipped with an air inlet. The cold air outside the tower enters the tower and comes into contact with the circulating water, which serves the purpose of lowering the temperature of the cooling water. If the environment in which the cooling tower is located is often affected by sandstorms, the sand and dust in the air will enter the tower through the air inlet. Over time, a large amount of sand and dust will accumulate in the cooling tower, causing blockage of the tower's filler and seriously affecting the performance of the cooling tower.
