In thermal power plant one of the main parts is consider, which cools the refrigerant. When cooling the refrigerant, the cold water becomes the hot water. The hot water temperature is reduced by cooling towers. When hot water enters the induced draft cooling tower and sprayed by nozzles. So hot water is converted into cold water .The effective cooling of water depends upon the dry bulb temperature and wet bulb temperature, size, height of the cooling tower and velocity of air .The project deals with the performance study and analysis of induced draft cooling tower, which is one of the deciding factors used for increasing the power plant efficiency also modelling and analysis of flow using software .A cooling tower is an enclosed device for the evaporative cooling of water by contact with the air. We aim to address the modeling of cooling tower in solid works software. We measure performance of cooling tower and wish to achieve more cooling efficiency. The performance of the Induced draft cooling tower evaluated, and the structural analysis is carried out in solid works simulation tool by varying the materials namely galvanized steel, stainless steel, concrete and balsa wood.
