Abstract:
A power plant includes a power generating system, a tower housing and an evaporative cooling system which includes at least one multiple-effect evaporative condenser. The multiple-effect evaporative condenser includes a pumping device, a first cooling unit and a second cooling unit. The first cooling unit includes a first water collection basin for collecting said cooling water from the pumping device, a plurality of first heat exchanging pipes connected to the condenser and immersed in the first water collection basin, and a first fill material unit provided underneath the first heat exchanging pipes. The second cooling unit includes a second water collection basin positioned underneath the first cooling unit for collecting said cooling water flowing from the first cooling unit, a plurality of second heat exchanging pipes immersed in the second water collection basin, and a second fill material unit provided underneath the second heat exchanging pipes.

Claim (Index 1):
A power plant, comprising:\n a power generating system having a circulating heat exchange fluid; a tower housing; and an evaporative cooling system which comprises at least one multiple-effect evaporative condenser connected to said power generating system for effectively cooling said heat exchange fluid, said multiple-effect evaporative condenser comprising: an air inlet side and an air outlet side which is opposite to said air inlet side; a pumping device adapted for pumping a predetermined amount of cooling water at a predetermined flow rate; a first cooling unit, comprising: a first water collection basin for collecting said cooling water from said pumping device; a plurality of first heat exchanging pipes connected to said power generating system and immersed in said first water collection basin; and a first fill material unit provided underneath said first heat exchanging pipes, wherein said cooling water collected in said first water collection basin is arranged to sequentially flow through exterior surfaces of said first heat exchanging pipes and said first fill material unit; a second cooling unit, comprising: a second water collection basin positioned underneath said first cooling unit for collecting said cooling water flowing from said first cooling unit; a plurality of second heat exchanging pipes immersed in said second water collection basin; and a second fill material unit provided underneath said second heat exchanging pipes, wherein said cooling water collected in said second water collection basin is arranged to sequentially flow through exterior surfaces of said second heat exchanging pipes and said second fill material unit; and a bottom water collecting basin positioned underneath said second cooling unit for collecting said cooling water flowing from said second cooling unit, the cooling water collected in said bottom water collection basin being arranged to be guided to flow back into said first water collection basin of said first cooling unit, said heat exchange fluid from said power generating system being arranged to flow through said first heat exchanging pipes of said first cooling unit and said second heat exchanging pipes of said second cooling unit in such a manner that said heat exchange fluid is arranged to perform highly efficient heat exchanging process with said cooling water for lowering a temperature of said heat exchange fluid, a predetermined amount of air being drawn from said air inlet side for performing heat exchange with said cooling water flowing through said first fill material unit and said second fill material unit for lowering a temperature of said cooling water, said air having absorbed said heat from said cooling water being discharged out of said first fill material unit and said second fill material unit through said air outlet side.
