Abstract

A cooling assembly includes a plurality of dry coolers. Each dry cooler has an air intake, an air outtake, a heat exchanger panel for exchanging heat with air pulled into the dry cooler, and a fan rotating about a fan rotation axis for pulling air into the dry cooler and rejecting heated air out of the dry cooler. The heat exchanger panel includes a tubing arrangement for circulating fluid therein. The dry coolers are arranged in a plurality of dry cooler stacks. Each dry cooler stack includes a first dry cooler and a second dry cooler disposed above the first dry cooler. The dry cooler stacks are positioned such that the dry coolers of each dry cooler stack reject heated air into a common heat rejection zone. Each dry cooler is oriented such that the fan rotation axis of the dry cooler is substantially transversal to a vertical axis.
