Abstract：A verification software for closed circuit cooling towers was developed using the Matlab GUI function.This software calculates the total heat transfer and the temperature drop of the heat transfer fluid under different air flow directions,different heat transfer fluid flow directions,and with or without fillers in closed circuit cooling towers.A comparative analysis was conducted to determine the optimal operating mode of closed circuit cooling towers with the best heat transfer performance under different spray water temperatures and different air dry bulb temperatures.
