A BAC counterflow cooling tower is a cooling tower model from Baltimore Aircoil Company (BAC) that uses the counterflow principle for heat rejection. Here’s an overview for you:


BAC counterflow cooling tower Working Principle


Counterflow means the air flows vertically upward, opposite to the downward flow of water.

Hot water enters at the top, is distributed through spray nozzles, and falls downward through the fill media.

At the same time, air is drawn upward by an induced draft fan at the top.

The opposing flows of water and air maximize heat and mass transfer, cooling the water efficiently before it collects in the basin.


BAC counterflow cooling tower Main Components


1. Hot Water Distribution System of BAC counterflow cooling tower


Spray nozzles distribute hot water evenly over the fill.


2. Fill (Heat Exchange Media) for BAC counterflow cooling tower


High surface area PVC or film-type material where water spreads and contacts air.


3. Fan(s) of BAC counterflow cooling tower


Induced draft fan at the top pulls air upward through the fill.


4. Drift Eliminators of BAC counterflow cooling tower


Capture water droplets to reduce drift losses.


5. Cold Water Basin of BAC counterflow cooling tower


Collects the cooled water at the bottom for recirculation.


6. Casing & Structure of BAC counterflow cooling tower


Encloses the tower and supports the components.


Advantages of BAC Counterflow Towers


High efficiency due to maximum contact time between air and water.

Compact footprint (smaller plan area than crossflow towers).

Lower drift losses with effective eliminators.

Energy savings with BAC’s optimized fan and fill design.

Factory-assembled models for faster installation and lower site costs.


BAC counterflow cooling tower Typical Applications


HVAC cooling for large buildings.

Process cooling in industries (power plants, chemical plants, steel, food processing).

District cooling systems.
