Box alarm fire in Chicago Heights, 2-6-16

Here's a message from Eric Haak:

The Chicago Heights Fire Department responded to a MABAS Box on Saturday morning, February 6th, for a fire at a Walmart under construction located at 21000 S. Western Avenue. From what I could see, it appeared to be a fire involving construction materials inside the building, but not the structure itself. There were two aerial ladders positioned and ready, but no water was applied to the roof. Due to safety restrictions, I wasn't allowed to get any closer than the construction fence, so all the photos here were taken from a distance. Still, I managed to capture a few shots of the responding units.

Counter Current Cooling Tower

Counter Current Cooling Tower has higher efficiency of the same volume, and offers larger water temperature difference. But it also comes with several disadvantages:


1.The unequal height between the air inlet and the water eliminator makes up the big Counter Current Cooling Tower and its high power consumption.


2.Meanwhile, the tower adopts nozzles to distribute water, which needs high pressure requirements and are easy to be blocked.


3.The entire tower body of the countercurrent tower is a closed structure, and it must be shut down when the equipment is overhauled or routinely maintained.

4.In addition, the rapid loss of water in the lower tank is very large, and it is easy to form water mist around the cooling tower, which is easy to cause the reproduction of legionary bacteria.
