Solar tower enhanced natural draft dry cooling tower [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2017 Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) plants are located in desert areas where the Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) value is very high. Since water resource is scarcely available, mechanical draft cooing technology is commonly used, with power consumption of mechanical fans being approximately 2% of the total power generated.
