Claims (8)

A module for a device intended to confine a spatial area or to generate at least one water curtain for a cooling tower,
At least one water supply unit;
At least one convergence area attached downstream of the water supply;
At least one nozzle mounted downstream of the convergence zone and made of two parallel walls that are equal in length to the module and separated by a distance that defines the thickness of the water curtain; seen including,
A module wherein one of the walls of the nozzle is movable and the other wall is fixed and includes means for moving the movable wall . At least one holding area attached downstream of the water supply and upstream of the convergence area, at least one flexible expandable grid and / or expandable porous material and / or multiple The module of claim 1, comprising at least one retention zone comprising a material comprising a flexible thin wall channel. The module of claim 1, wherein the converging area includes two walls whose downward extension forms the two walls of the nozzle. The module of claim 2, wherein the holding area includes two walls whose downward extension forms the two walls of the convergence area.
