Cooling Water Intake Screening Devices Used to Reduce Entrainment and Impingement. Topical Briefs: Fish and Wildlife Resources and Electric Power Generation, no. 9

摘要

Cooling water intake screening devices that Fish and Wildlife Service personnel may be expected to assess are identified and described. The devices included are modified verticle traveling screens, single-entrance double-exit screens, horizontal traveling screens, passive intake screens, radial wells, artificial filter beds, and porous dikes. For each device the location, limitations or restrictions, evidence for reducing entrainment and impingement, and major unresolved problems are also discussed.
