One of the most practical and economical ways to dissipate large amounts of heat generated by different types of equipment is to use enclosed cooling towers, as cooling towers offer the important advantage of direct contact between liquids. To support the development of new research that makes an important contribution to the topic, it is necessary to analyze research trends. The approach used in this study is a bibliometric analysis of publications indexed in the Scopus database over the last ten decades (1922-2023). In this study, a total of 178 cooling tower publications were evaluated to assess publication production trends, countries, primary languages, institutions, authors, major journals, and keywords. The results showed a fluctuating trend in the number of articles during the period with the main focus on cooling towers. Countries such as China and the United States showed high productivity in this study. Authors such as guan and gurgenci have significant contributions in cooling tower research. Commonly used keywords include cooling tower and cooling tower design.The implications of these findings can help researchers, academics, publishers, and other stakeholders in understanding and optimizing their contributions in the field of study of cooling towers. Thus, this research makes a valuable contribution in enriching the understanding of research developments in the cooling tower domain
