Cooling towers, namely, plume abatement systems and parts and fittings therefor; apparatus for lighting, heating, steam generating, cooking, refrigerating, drying, ventilating, water supply and sanitary purposes.
A system connects fluid heat exchange devices such as a submerged combustion LNG vaporizer and a heating tower. The fluid handling system has a first heat exchange device having a first fluid inlet and a first fluid outlet, and a second heat exchange device having a second fluid inlet and a second fluid outlet. A first conduit connects the first fluid outlet to the second fluid inlet, a first reservoir receives fluid from the first fluid outlet, a second reservoir receives fluid from the second fluid outlet, a second conduit connects the second reservoir to the first fluid inlet; and a third, fluid equalization, conduit connected to the first reservoir and the second reservoir equalizes the fluid levels in the first and second reservoirs with each other.
F28D 1/047 - Heat-exchange apparatus having stationary conduit assemblies for one heat-exchange medium only, the media being in contact with different sides of the conduit wall, in which the other heat-exchange medium is a large body of fluid, e.g. domestic or motor car radiators with the heat-exchange conduits immersed in the body of fluid with tubular conduits the conduits being bent, e.g. in a serpentine or zig-zag

CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VAPORIZER WITH HEATING TOWER
A method of vaporizing liquefied natural gas includes passing liquefied natural gas through a submerged combustion vaporizer having a water bath at a bath temperature and a burner to provide a vaporized gas output at a send-out temperature, drawing water from the bath of the submerged combustion vaporizer and supplying it to an atmospheric heating tower having an ambient air temperature, returning water from the atmospheric heating tower to the bath of the submerged combustion vaporizer, modulating the operating rate of the burner of the submerged combustion vaporizer, and modulating the operating rate of the atmospheric heating tower.

A method and apparatus is provided for warming a liquid or gas. The apparatus may be suitable for the vaporization of liquefied natural gas. In order to warm the liquid or gas for vaporization for other purposes, a heating tower is used. The heating tower can include a system for drawing air through, and spraying water over, a tube bundle type heat exchanger. The heat exchanger may include the material to be heated itself, or may be part of an intermediate loop containing an intermediate heat exchange fluid. In the case of the intermediate loop, a second heat exchanger is provided which on one side receives fluid from the intermediate loop which is warmed by the heating tower, and on the other side provides heat to the material which is desired to be heated.
