Cooling tower is a heat rejection device which rejects waste heat to the
atmosphere through the cooling of water stream to a lower temperature. All
cooling towers operate on the principle of removing heat from water by
evaporating small portion of the water that recirculated through the unit. The
heat that is removes is called latent heat of vaporization. This is why the
water is loss in make up tank and the water must be added in several times.
AIMS/OBJECTIVES
1. To determine the correlation of water to air mass flow ratio with increasing
water
flow rate.
2. Determine the cooling load effect, effect of different air flow rates and also
the
effect of different flow rates on the wet bulb approach and pressure drop
through the packing.
