  • System and method of cooling
    Publication number: 20030033831
    Abstract: A cooling system and method for use in industrial plants are disclosed. A hot fluid stream is first cooled in an air-cooled stage to an intermediate temperature, and then to a final temperature in a water-cooled stage. The two-stage cooling method, which has advantages over either air-cooling or water-cooling alone, is well-suited for applications or locations where water use is restricted due to economic or environmental concerns.
