[0002] Most of the existing cross-flow open cooling towers have a fixed two-sided air intake method, which has limited air intake methods and fixed cooling conditions. Because the air inlet of the cooling tower does not necessarily correspond to the local maximum frequency wind direction throughout the year, the climate environment in different regions has a greater impact on the air intake of the cooling tower. The cooling efficiency in different environments varies, which affects the installation and operation efficiency of the cooling tower. The cooling tower is a large equipment and cannot be moved and adjusted after installation. Therefore, it is affected by changes in regional climate and wind direction, resulting in unstable operation efficiency. Utility Model Content
