About this model

This cooling tower 3d model puts the classic power plant icon on your horizon in cozy style. The tower is 12 m tall with a waisted hyperbolic concrete shell, gentle pour lines and two teal accent bands near the top. A cornice carries a yellow railing, and a yellow caged ladder follows the curve of the shell all the way up. At the base a ring of inclined concrete columns forms a cheerful diamond pattern, and through the gaps you can see the blue water of the cooling basin and the dark fill pack inside. Two teal hot water pipes with steel flanges rest on saddles, ready to link to a pump house. Above the opening a soft white steam cloud rises to about 15.8 m. It is a separate semi transparent object named cooling-tower_steam, so you can hide it, scale it or animate it. The model has 32,872 triangles and a base about 9.5 m wide.

Good for

  • Power plant skyline
  • Energy production in a city builder
  • Industrial zone backdrop
  • Animated steam effect showcase

Engine import notes

Unity GLB · FBX

Import the GLB with the glTFast package or use the FBX. 1 m in the file = 1 Unity unit.

Unreal Engine FBX

Use the FBX. The model is built in metres. Unreal works in centimetres and converts on import, so it arrives at real size (15.8 m = 1,578 cm).

Godot 4 GLB · FBX

Drag the GLB into the FileSystem dock. Godot 4 imports it directly, with materials. The FBX works too (Godot 4.3+ imports it natively).

Blender BLEND · GLB

Open the .blend directly, or import the GLB via File › Import › glTF 2.0.

Use it in: UnityUnrealGodotBlender
