Cooling towers on power stations - why?

Stephen Biddle over 6 years ago

Hi All

I was working on a power station in Oman last month and it was gas fired with condensing steam turbines - no evaporation. This week I'm working on a coal fired one in Poland, which has cooling towers and evaporation. Is it something to do with the gas or just that they have no water in Oman?

Thanks

This is the power plant I was working at in Oman. It was built by the Chinese and I'm told it used gas powered steam turbines
