Recently, the No. 1 intercooling tower of Ningxia Liupanshan Power Plant, with Shouhang High-Tech as the leading EPC general contractor, has achieved a significant milestone - the first (15th and 16th floors) lifting was successfully completed, marking that the project will officially enter the inverted installation stage. This new energy landmark, advanced with millimeter-level precision, is accelerating its full completion through an innovative inverted installation process, setting a new benchmark for the clean energy transition.

 

 

 

 

Inverted installation method

 

Shouhang Hi-Tech adopts the inverted installation method for subsequent construction and installation. Compared with traditional installation methods, the inverted installation method has the following advantages:

 

1.The workload of high-altitude installation work is small, and the risk of construction workers working at heights is reduced.

 

2. The welding work is completed on the ground, and the welding quality can be well controlled.

 

3. Ground welding is affected by factors such as temperature, and it is easy to take feasible measures for implementation.

 

4. There is no need to set up a high-level tower crane for operation inside the tower.

 

5. The convenience of ground welding operations can effectively reduce construction time.

 

This project adopts the "high-efficiency ultra-supercritical" power generation technology and is equipped with a "one machine, one tower" configuration. The total height of a single tower reaches 190 meters, and the tower body is modularly assembled in 16 layers. Innovatively breaking through the traditional concrete tower model, it adopts a hyperbolic single-layer grid shell spatial structure and is supported as a whole by 42 inclined supports. The diameter of the tower body changes dynamically with height, forming a streamlined "small waist" surface that combines aesthetics and mechanics. Through efficient air flow organization, the cooling efficiency is significantly improved.

 

 

After its completion, this cooling tower will become an important energy infrastructure in the northwest region, providing strong support for ensuring the stable power supply in the area. Shouhang Hi-Tech will continue to leverage its leading position in air-cooling technology, deeply participate in the subsequent construction of the project, and ensure the high-quality completion of this "Little waist" site, which carries the global mission of demonstrating the green transformation of thermal power, through the application of innovative technologies and meticulous construction management.
