I guess CEans would be happy to help you if you ask specific questions. What are the difficulties you are facing in the design of cooling towers?

Yes, please ask specific questions. I have some experience with cooling towers and would be glad to help.

cooling tower efficiency calculation
im a 3rd yr mech engg student in an anna university affiliated college at
Nagercoil in TamilNAdu
im doing "fabrication of cooling tower" as mini project
the tower possess "mechanical draft cooling system"
I want to calculate the efficiency of cooling tower
pls help me to find a soln😕 -

Do you already have your data for the calculation?

i dont knw wat are readings that is to be taken from the cooling tower 4 efficiency calculation??

You will need the following data:
cooling water flow rate
cooling water inlet temp
cooling water exit temp
in air wet bulb temp
in air dry bulb temp
exit air wet bulb temp
exit air dry bulb temp
then you will need to calculate the following:
waterside actual heat load
in air wet bulb absolute humidity
in air dry bulb absolute humidity
% of saturation
enthalpy condition at inlet & outlet
calculate air flow on heat load of enthalpy condition
calculate heat needed for evap
This will get you started...
