HARDENED COOLING TOWER FEASIBILITY STUDY.

Abstract

This report presents a summary of the results of a study conducted to ascertain the feasibility of developing a hardened cooling tower provided blast resistant fans are available. The study included a literature search, an evaluation of slanting potential, preliminary hardening analyses and conceptual designs. Introductory sections describing pertinent cooling tower and weapons effects loading characteristics have been included in the report. Preliminary cost estimates indicating the magnitude of potential savings are included. (Author)
