Question:

Reconsider Prob. 14-138. Using EES (or other) software, investigate the effect of air inlet wet-bulb temperature on the required air volume flow rate and the makeup water flow rate when the other input data are the stated values. Plot the results as functions of wetbulb temperature.
Prob. 14-138
A natural-draft cooling tower is to remove 70 MW of waste heat from the cooling water that enters the tower at 42oC and leaves at 30oC. Atmospheric air enters the tower at 1 atm with dry- and wet-bulb temperatures of 23 and 16oC, respectively, and leaves saturated at 32oC.
