Abstract: Disclosed herein is a fan cylinder for a cooling tower, which is configured to prevent the air discharged from the cooling tower from flowing back thereinto. The fan cylinder is fixed to the upper side of the cooling tower, and is configured to mount a cooling fan therein. The fan cylinder comprises a linear portion having a constant inner diameter, and mounted therein with the cooling fan; an inlet portion connected at an upper end thereof to a lower end of the linear portion, and having an inner diameter increasing downwardly; an extension portion connected at a lower end thereof to an upper end of the linear portion; and having an inner diameter increasing upwardly, and an outlet portion connected to an upper end of the extension portion, and having an inner diameter decreasing upwardly.

Abstract: An air guide for a cooling tower that prevents the air discharged from the cooling tower from flowing back into the cooling tower, and facilitates smooth circulation of outside air inside the cooling tower. The air guide is coupled to a side surface of the cooling tower, and has a length corresponding to a width of the side surface. The air guide includes an air-inflow prevention wall having a curved cross section extending downwardly and outwardly. The air guide further includes an air inlet portion defined at a lower end of the air-inflow prevention wall, and an extension portion extending from the lower end of the air-inflow prevention wall toward the cooling tower.
