About MRL Cooling Tower Software

Software Notes


¤  All software utilizes dual units (US customary and SI) except where noted

¤  IDCF, IDXF, FDCF and NDCF can model cooling tower performance with both fresh and seawater

¤  All software is copy protected. Source code is not provided

¤  The look and feel of the software is exactly like the version provided by MRL on 3.5 in. floppy disks. It is pure DOS and as such,      not mouse active

¤  A completely revised PowerPoint user manual in PDF format is included on the USB flash drive for all programs purchased



IDCF - Rating/sizing of evaporative, induced-draft, counter flow cooling towers


¤  Design a new induced draft cooling tower based on design conditions or predict performance of an existing cooling tower

¤  Includes the latest fill data from leading suppliers



IDXF - Rating/sizing of evaporative, induced-draft, cross flow cooling towers


¤  Design a new induced-draft cross flow cooling tower based on design conditions or predict performance of an existing cooling      tower

¤  Includes the latest fill data from leading suppliers



FDCF - Rating/sizing of evaporative, forced-draft, counter flow cooling towers


¤  Design a new forced-draft counter flow cooling tower based on design conditions or predict performance of an existing cooling      tower

¤  Includes the latest fill data from leading suppliers



NDCF - Rating/sizing of evaporative, natural-draft, counter flow cooling towers


¤  Design a new natural draft cooling tower based on design conditions or predict performance of an existing cooling tower

¤  Fill sections can be comprised of up to three different fills

¤  The fill plan area can be segmented into 16 concentric rings for exacting fill placement



NDXF - Rating/sizing of evaporative, natural-draft, cross flow cooling towers


¤  Design a new natural-draft cross flow cooling tower based on design conditions or predict performance of an existing cooling       tower

¤  Includes the latest fill data from leading suppliers



CFPC - Performance curve plotting for induced-draft cooling towers


¤  For both induced-draft counter flow and cross flow towers (not applicable for natural draft)

¤  Produces performance curves that meet CTI ATC-105 criteria (WBT vs CWT, with range as the parameter for each water flow)

¤  Graphs can be printed to a PDF printer or directly to a hard copy printer
