COOLING TOWER PACKING UNIT Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC F28F25/08 

FIELD: power industry.

SUBSTANCE: cooling tower packing unit includes tubular elements from thermoplastic material with meshed wall, which are laid in layers parallel to each other; at that, along edges the tubular elements are welded to each other. Tubular elements have triangular cross section and between each layer of tubular elements across tubular elements and along each of their edges there is strip from thermoplastic material, which is welded with tubular elements in places of their contact to the strip. At that, during welding process end sections of tubular elements and strips laid between them are fused, and solid end walls of the unit are formed during fusion process; cavities of each of tubular elements and inter-tube space is filled with hollow polymer balls; at that, ball diametre is by 5-10% bigger than maximum size of cell of meshed wall of tubular elements.

EFFECT: uniformity of heat-mass-exchange and enhancement of cooling capacity of sprinkler.
