Air-cooled condensers in large thermal power plants, in addition to offering numerous advantages over conventional water-cooled condensation systems, also possess certain specific characteristics that should not be overlooked. These characteristics primarily arise from the type of cooling medium used in such systems. They are not limited to the low density and low specific heat of air, but more importantly concern the stochastic nature of the thermodynamic parameters of the system’s environment. The parameters that can most significantly compromise the stability of such condensers are air temperature, wind, and solar radiation. Among them, wind exhibits the most pronounced stochastic behavior. Generally, the impact of wind on the stability of an air-cooled condensation system is primarily associated with the intensity of lateral wind speed. However, depending on the specific spatial position of the condenser within the thermal power plant, wind direction – in addition to speed – can also play a significant role. For this reason, the focus of the present research is placed on determining the influence of wind direction on the degree of disturbance in the operation of an air-cooled condensation system, using the Stanari thermal power plant as a case study – currently the only large-scale thermal power plant with an air-cooled condenser in Eastern Europe.
