Russian. A review of scientific works on cooler towers under different wind loadings is presented; advantages and disadvantages of tower coolers are revealed; a classification of them according to a number of the most important characteristics is given. Longitudinal and ring strengths in cooler towers depending on their height for different windy regions were calculated; considerable influence of wind loading size upon efforts in a cooler tower was shown; longitudinal strengths are by an order of magnitude higher than ring strengths. It is revealed that both longitudinal and ring strengths have maximum values at the neck; it is shown that longitudinal and ring strengths have different signs at different angles of ring wind direction. The performed calculation and analysis can be used in the design and construction of metal tower coolers of hyperboloidal shape on energy facilities. In this case, it is required to pay great attention to the calculation during their construction and operation in areas with significant wind loading.
