2. Description of the Related Art In a cooling tower, for example, a cross flow type cooling tower, in cooling using the latent heat of vaporization of spray water, a part of the spray water is evaporated and the mass is transferred to the air side. Is determined by the amount of heat exchanged and the latent heat of vaporization of the amount of spray water. As the sprayed water evaporates, the concentration of impurities such as additives and silica in the sprayed water increases, and the water quality deteriorates. The air that is the outside air that exchanges heat with the sprayed water is heated,
It is heated and becomes saturated air at the exhaust port. The temperature at which this air is heated is determined by the amount of heat exchanged and the amount of air.
The amount of evaporation per unit time accounts for 65 to 70% of the amount of make-up water per unit time of the cooling tower, and there is ample room for improvement from the viewpoint of water saving resources. ,

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiment 1 This form is defined in claims 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
1 is a typical embodiment including the method invention of FIG. 11, and in FIG. 1, the cooling tower 10 is of a closed type cross-flow type, and spray water is sprayed from the upper water tank 11 into a closed type heat exchanger 1.
2 is sprayed on and is contacted with the outside air flow, and the sprayed water is cooled by the latent heat effect of the sprayed water, and the circulating water circulating in the closed heat exchanger 12 is indirectly cooled, and the exhaust port of the cooling tower 10 is cooled. The air exhausted from the exhaust stack 13 provided with the blower 19 to be formed is saturated moist air. The saturated moist air is one kind of refrigerant flowing along the outer surface of the collecting duct 14 while being guided and blown toward the inner surface of the mist collecting duct 14 connected to the exhaust pipe 13 by the current-changing plate 17. It is indirectly cooled by cold water to become supersaturated air, which causes dew condensation on the inner surface of the collection duct 14. At this time, the position of spraying to the inner surface of the collecting duct 14 by the current-changing plate 17 is higher than the current-changing plate 17, that is, the uppermost one in the center of the collecting duct 14 is closer to the upper edge of the collecting duct 14. Then, the blowing position of the current-changing plate 17 from the peripheral portion of the exhaust pipe 13 is set to be slightly lower than the middle stage of the collecting duct 14. The method of changing the direction of the exhaust flow by the current-changing plate 17 is an example, and is not limited to the above example. The point is that the method is not limited to the above method as long as a larger amount of exhaust flow is brought into contact with the inner surface of the collection duct 14. Preferably,
The height dimension of the collection duct 14 is made longer than the height dimension of the exhaust pipe 13 to widen the area where the saturated moist air is blown to the inner surface of the collection duct 14, and the middle stage of the collection duct 14 is expanded. As a region from the top to the upper edge, the ratio of the amount of condensed water temporarily collected at the bottom of the collection duct 14 that causes the condensation to the total amount of evaporated water is 10 to 15%.
And In this mode, in the case of the cold water, a pipe P is formed along the outer surface of the collection duct 14 by spiral welding or the like.
Is used as a water cooling jacket, and the cold water flows in the pipe P. The generated condensation water collects the dew condensation water 1
It is temporarily collected by a ring-shaped water receiver 15 formed at the bottom of No. 4, is guided to the outside of the collection duct 14, and is collected and supplied to the upper water tank 11 as a part of spray water. As the cold water, a part of the cold water from a refrigerator, which is a kind of hot and cold water heater, is directly supplied to the pipe P for use. The collection duct 14
Of the ring-shaped water provided under the inner surface of the collecting duct 14 by making the cross-sectional area of the exhaust duct 13 larger than the cross-sectional area of the exhaust port to reduce the wind speed and increase the contact area with the air flow. It is preferable to prevent re-scattering of the condensed water collected in the receiver 15. The cross-sectional area of the collection duct 14 is preferably about 1.2 to 2 times the cross-sectional area of the exhaust port of the exhaust pipe 13. If this ratio is too small, the wind speed lowering effect will be small, and if this ratio is too large, extra space will be required. Instead of the cold water, cold air, outside air, or makeup water may be used. In case of outside air, the water cooling jacket is not used.

2. Description of the Related Art In a cooling tower, for example, a cross flow type cooling tower, in cooling by utilizing latent heat of vaporization of spray water, a part of the spray water is evaporated and mass is transferred to the air side. Is determined by the amount of heat exchanged and the latent heat of vaporization of the amount of spray water. As the sprayed water evaporates, the concentration of impurities such as additives and silica in the sprayed water increases, and the water quality deteriorates. The air that is the outside air that exchanges heat with the sprayed water is heated,
It is heated and becomes saturated air at the exhaust port. The temperature at which this air is heated is determined by the amount of heat exchanged and the amount of air.
The amount of evaporation per unit time accounts for 65 to 70% of the amount of make-up water per unit time of the cooling tower, and there is ample room for improvement from the viewpoint of water saving resources.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiment 1 This form is defined in claims 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 1.
1 is a typical embodiment including the method invention described in 0. In FIG. 1, the cooling tower 10 is a closed type cross-flow type, and sprayed water is sprayed from the upper water tank 11 onto the sealed heat exchanger 12. Then, the blower 19 which contacts the outside airflow, cools the spray water by its latent heat action, indirectly cools the circulating water circulating in the closed heat exchanger 12, and forms the exhaust port of the cooling tower 10. The air exhausted from the exhaust pipe 13 having the above is referred to as saturated moist air. The saturated moist air is blown while being guided by the current-changing plate 17 toward the inner surface of the mist collecting duct 14 that is continuous with the exhaust pipe 13, and the collecting duct 1
4 is indirectly cooled by cold water, which is one of the refrigerants flowing along the outer surface of No. 4, and becomes supersaturated air.
Condensation is generated on the inner surface of. At this time, the position of spraying to the inner surface of the collecting duct 14 by the current-changing plate 17 is higher than the current-changing plate 17, that is, the uppermost one in the center of the collecting duct 14 is closer to the upper edge of the collecting duct 14. Then, the blowing position of the current-changing plate 17 from the peripheral portion of the exhaust pipe 13 is set to be slightly lower than the middle stage of the collecting duct 14. The method of changing the direction of the exhaust flow by the current-changing plate 17 is an example, and is not limited to the above example. The point is that the method is not limited to the above method as long as a larger amount of exhaust flow is brought into contact with the inner surface of the collection duct 14. Preferably, the height dimension of the collection duct 14 is made longer than the height dimension of the exhaust pipe 13 to widen a region where the saturated humid air is blown to the inner surface of the collection duct 14 to form the collection duct. The condensation is generated as a region extending from the middle stage of 14 to the upper edge. In this aspect, in the case of the cold water, a pipe P, which is spirally welded along the outer surface of the collection duct 14, is used as a water cooling jacket, and the cold water flows in the pipe P. The generated condensed water is temporarily collected by a ring-shaped water receiver 18 formed at the bottom of the collecting duct 14, guided to the outside of the collecting duct 14, and collected in the upper water tank 11 as a part of sprayed water. Then supply. As the cold water, a part of the cold water from a refrigerator, which is a kind of hot and cold water heater, is directly supplied to the pipe P for use. The collection duct 14
Is formed larger than the cross-sectional area of the exhaust port of the exhaust pipe 13 to reduce the wind speed and increase the contact area with the air flow, and the ring-shaped water provided under the inner surface of the collection duct 14 It is preferable to prevent re-scattering of the condensed water collected in the receiver 18. The cross-sectional area of the collection duct 14 is preferably about 1.2 to 2 times the cross-sectional area of the exhaust port of the exhaust pipe 13. If this ratio is too small, the wind speed lowering effect will be small, and if this ratio is too large, extra space will be required. Instead of the cold water, cold air, outside air, or makeup water may be used. In the case of outside air, the water cooling jacket is not used.
