A wet surface air cooling system is disclosed and includes a primary cooling unit having a bundle of heat exchanger tubes. Water is directed over the bundle of heat exchanger tubes and is collected in a collection basin. A secondary cooling tower is provided and a closed circulatory loop draws a portion of the water from the collection basin and directs the water to the secondary cooling tower to increase the cooling capacity of the system. The secondary cooling tower is rendered operative automatically upon sensing a particular temperature of the water in the circulation system of the primary cooling unit.

A wet surface air cooling system, comprising: a primary wet surface cooling unit which includes heat exchanger means, a collection basin for collecting water directed over the heat exchanger means, and circulation means for selectively drawing a portion of the water from said collection basin and directing the water over the heat exchanger means; a secondary cooling unit including cooling means, means for selectively diverting a portion of the water from said circulation means and directing the water to the cooling means for simultaneous cooling of the water to increase the cooling capacity of the system, and return means for returning said portion of the water back to the collection basin; and fan means for circulating air through said primary cooling unit, said secondary unit including means for selectively effecting air circulation therethrough by said fan means of the primary cooling unit.
