How to calculate the costing of a cooling tower

Costing calculation of a cooling tower include analyzing of following features.

• Building of the tower,
• Constructing materials,
• Packing materials the fills within the tower,
• Pumps
• Pings

Following cost also must included

• Pump power costing,
• Fan power costing for a mechanical draft cooling tower,
• Estimate for the maintenance cost;
• Treatment of the water to prevent corrosion, biological growth

Following book also help you to increase your ability to understand the concepts of engineering cost calculations
