Cool Waters of Lake Save Coal for Power
Milwaukee, Wis., May 22-How large power plants can save thousands of dollars in summer coal bills by tapping lower levels of lake water was revealed to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers meeting here by Prof. A, G. Christie of Johns Hopkins University.
By locating intakes for cooling water for use in condensing steam so that they would reach the cold bottom layers of northern lakes, Prof. Christie explained, water 10 to 20 degrees cooler could be obtained. With this colder cooling water, acid was removed from the liquid in the condenser and the consumption of steam could be decreased. He estimated that the decrease in steam consumption due to increase of vacuum would result in a saving of $56,556 in four and one-half months operation of a 100,000 kw plant.
Professor Christie lassed his findings on temperature data collected by biologists in their study of fish life in northern lakes.
