摘要：

This study discuss the application of Taguchi method in assessing maximum cooling tower effectiveness for the counter flow cooling tower using expanded wire mesh packing. The experiments were planned based on Taguchi's L27 orthogonal array. The trail was performed under different inlet conditions of flow rate of water, air, and water temperature. Signal-to-noise ratio analysis, analysis of variance and regression were carried out in order to determine the effects of process parameters on cooling tower effectiveness and to identity optimal factor settings. Finally confirmation tests verified this reliability of Taguchi method for optimization of counter flow cooling tower performance with sufficient accuracy.
