As a reservist or guardsman you will most likely fall into this category. This where you will serve one weekend a month, two weeks a year.

First, the water is distributed evenly. across the top of the cooling tower. structure. Tower distribution decks can. be a series of spray nozzles oriented up. or down (like a landscaping sprinkler. system) to uniformly distribute the water. over the tower structure.
As the water flows through the cooling tower, it is exposed to air, which is being pulled through the tower by the electric motor-driven fan. When the water and air meet, a small amount of water is evaporated, creating a cooling action. The cooled water is then pumped back to the condenser or process equipment where it absorbs heat. It will then be pumped back to the cooling tower to be cooled once again. Cooling Tower Fundamentals provides a level of basic cooling tower knowledge and is a great resource for those wanting to learn more.
