Inputs for the configuration of the wet cooling tower are entered on the Config parameter screen. It is the same for all plant types. The following parameters are available:

•Air Flow Draft Control Type: This option determines the type of air flow draft. The Forced draft option uses the fan at the intake to force air through the tower. Forced is currently the only option available.

•Slip Stream Treatment System: This option determines whether a slip stream treatment system is loaded. The choice (Yes or No ) of a slip stream treatment system depends on site-specific quality of cooling water in the closed-loop recirculating system.

•Makeup Water Treatment System: This option determines whether a makeup water treatment system is needed. The choice (Yes or No ) of a makeup water treatment system depends on site-specific quality of makeup water for the cooling system.

•Cooling Duty of Wet Unit in Summer: (Only shown for hybrid cooling systems .) This is the fraction of total cooling duty assigned to the wet unit in the summer.
