How adiabatic cooler works

The adiabatic cooler, sometimes called adiabatic dry cooler or dry cooler with adiabatic pre-coolers, is designed to cool process fluids with ambient air or with ambient air pre-cooled by water (“adiabatic pre-cooling”).

Air pre-cooling generally becomes necessary in hot weather.

Prominent among the various special features of PAD-XL is its integrated operation logic, designed to minimize the use of fountain water, ensuring maximum performance even during the hottest periods of the year. PAD-XL manages and adjusts short wetting cycles only when necessary, avoiding the most common continuous wetting.

    Adiabatic Cooling: Frequently Asked Questions and Expert Answers

    Un sistema di raffreddamento adiabatico (dry cooler adiabatico per liquidi, condensatore adiabatico per gas) è un sistema che combina il principio di un dry cooler (raffreddatore a secco) con il pre-raffreddamento adiabatico dell’aria esterna.

    Some main advantages can be enumerated, related to reduced water use and optimized operation during different seasons and times of the day.

    Modern evaporative coolers use automatic blowdown systems controlled by conductivity sensors, partial recovery of discharge water, and optimized make-up strategies. Adiabatic systems, on the other hand—with the proper use of sensors and PLC-based parameter settings—use water only during periods of maximum thermal load, reducing overall consumption compared to traditional cooling towers (though with some loss of efficiency). The adoption of recovery circuits also allows part of the water to be reused in any cooling system that relies on this resource.

    Adiabatic cooling systems (adiabatic dry coolers for liquids, adiabatic condensers for gases) are the optimal solution where the goal is to save water, either due to the absence of that resource or to risks associated with its management.

    In an evaporative system, approximately 2% of the mass to be cooled evaporates and is released back into the environment.

    During the design phase, the use of selection and configuration software makes it possible to compare different solutions—chillers, cooling towers, adiabatic coolers, or dry coolers—by simulating their seasonal performance and heat loads. These digital tools also estimate energy and water consumption and help optimize system sizing.

    Sustainability of the Adiabatic Dry Cooler

    Environmental and economic sustainability of PAD-XL W adiabatic cooler

    • Minimal water use (only for adiabatic operation), which is useful for facilitating heat transfer (i.e., cooling of the process fluid).
    • Optimized energy use (higher efficiency due to adiabatic supply).
    • Smaller installation spaces compared to the 100% air solution.
    • Falls within the product categories that MITA is able to regenerate.
    • Indication of “carbon footprint” from the MITA team.
