The document summarizes cooling tower water use calculations for a cooling tower with a 600 ton load and 8 equivalent full load hours. It calculates the water flow rate as 1,800 gpm based on a flow rate of 3 gpm/ton. Taking into account factors like wet bulb temperature, approach, delta T, and a correction factor, it determines the evaporation loss is 19.080 gpm, drift loss is 0.09 gpm, and blowdown is 6.36 gpm. The total makeup water required is calculated to be 25.53 gpm.
