Frederik van Iterson designed and patented the first counter flow type cooling tower. The first one was build 100 years before you posted this video, in 1918, at the Dutch State's Mine (DSM) Emma in the south of the Netherlands.
I'm going on a major nuclear power plant binge because I watched Chernobyl. Even though I'll never have use for this information, it's still very interesting to see how it all works!
The reactor heats up water into high pressure steam, which goes to the steam turbines to produce electricity. Once the steam condenses, it goes to the cooling tower as hot water. It needs to be cooled so that it can be safely dumped back in environment, or reused in the reactor again.
@@sylviaisgod6947 wow, you're right! I simplified it for general audiences. Thanks for making the effort to clearify my explanation, though. I really like how you pointed out that all reactors have a closed loop of coolant that leads from the core to a heat exchanger that heats the water, and that the coolant in the reactor is not necissarily water, but could be NaK, NaCl, or something else entirely.
@@Greenicegod You simplified it too much, people who know nothing about nuclear power will read that and think radioactive water & steam go straight into the atmosphere....Don't believe me? Read some of the comments.
Does all cooling towers connect to the condenser? or the steam directly flows into the cooling tower for cooling? because I read from resources around they never state it very clearly. So i am not sure if the cooling tower is for cooling the low pressure steam after coming out of the turbine, or to cool down the water from the condenser.
Cooling towers cool the water flowing on the inside of the condenser tubes; the steam from the turbines condenses on the outside of the tubes and is fed back to the reactor/boiler or whatever the heat source, it's 2 separate loops.
Disappointed that the "presenter" failed to mention the reason why the "nuclear power plant" cooling tower has it's unique shape. This shape is very important to the proper functioning of the cooling tower and it would not work effectively without it.
This has nothing to do with specifically nuclear power plants. All thermal power plants require cooling and they all use either cooling by sea, rivers, lakes or cooling towers. Good diagrams and explanations, though.
If we're being honest, nuclear power plants have many similarities with conventional thermal power plants. The cooling methods are pretty much the same too. Else, what would be specifically related to nuclear cooling systems that's not in other thermal plants?
thats where waste heat recovery comes into picture,using a shell and tube boiler to use this water to heat in another process maybe,this is not like a coal operated plant using exhaust heat to increase efficiency of the process. The objective is to draw energy away from the core,keeping it cool and preventing a meltdown
The map reminded me of mylta power in pubg 😂

And yeah the chad counterflow one is the most iconic element of any NPP( featured even in games and movies and Chernobyl NPP itself!)
Never heard of the cross flow tower this video is amazing
Great video! I always wondered how these cooling towers worked.
I’d never thought I would learn about Power plant cooling towers. Thank you for the lesson!
These hyperboloid towers are used for more than just nuclear power plants. Any place where a lot of heat needs to be removed efficiently.
Best explanation so far. Good job, thanks!
Nice, before I thought these big cooling towers was useless, thanks for the info.
Why would they build them if they're useless..??
Tank you for explanation. It was really helpful
Awsm animation.. thanks❤
First time watching about cooling tower, alright I understood Sir. Thankyou 🙏
Short and simple 🤝

I'm curious, with a construction like that isn't it very possible for a dirt to fall in to the cooling tower and contaminate the water in the basin?
the water goes back in the river so it doesn't matter. it's not a closed system since it doesnt get into contact with radiation.
Thank you.
From where the hot water comes from .. ant whats the type of it .. is it an antifreeze ?
Thanks a lot ❤️

@@Greenicegod That's completely false, that's not how it works.

Cool! Can you do Pochinki or military base next?

Good explanation 🤣
Im here because the ECHO video.
Holy sssssst...same

Remind me like Mylta power plant
Bimashakti tower of free fire😂😂
Yes
Nice explanation...👍but what if the ambient temperature is more than working temperature then how it transfers heat??
If the ambient temperature is more than working temperature then everyone in that area is dead, as water comes in near boiling.
So where does the hot water come from?
It comes from the output of the tube side of the condenser.
But the sounds loud in cooling towet
thnx

Indeed. The first tower was build in 1918 at a coal mine in the Netherlands. The Dutch State's Mine Emma. It was a design by Frederik van Iterson.

No.. its created texture. Glad to see your comment.
From where is hot water came?
Condenser.
From turbine

Why can't this be used to cool down the water at Fukushima?
Because they have an ocean.

In FREE FIRE bimasakti tower 🤣🤣🤣
Seems like a waste of energy. Can you not just cycle hot water back into the reactor to lower the amount of energy needed to convert it to steam?
Part of the reason is cause that water is also used to cool the reactor so if you keep inputting heat in you are looking at a melt down
