River water or cooling towers?
Theoretical gain of thermal efficiency due to use of river water at 50 deg. fahr., as compared with water artificially cooled to 75 deg., for condensing, is partly neutralized by difficulty of dealing efficiently with immense volume of steam at pressure of 1 in. of mercury (absolute); instead of 10 per cent, net gain in practice is 4 or 5 per cent. (See also Elec. Rev., vol. 100, no. 2564, Jan. 14, 1927, pp. 46-48, 1 fig.; brief translated abstract in Power Engr., vol. 22, no. 255, June 1927, p. 234.)
