FIELD: cooling-tower water catchers. SUBSTANCE: water catcher includes stack of У-shaped plates having vertical inlet and outlet sections with rectilinear section inclined at angle of α≅60^°. to level located between them. Optimal height of vertical sections ranges from 50 to 59 mm and from 75 to 81 mm, respectively. Edges of vertical sections are curvilinear and equidistant, thus making it possible to arranged stacks in cylindrical tower by concentric circles.
