In an industrial plant where tires are made, there is a wet cooling tower which fulfills a very important part of the process, it must cool 15 kg/s of water cooling temperature from 45 to 27°C, in a location where the atmospheric pressure is 95 kPa. Atmospheric air enters the tower at 22 °C and 60% relative humidity, and leaves 0.87 saturated at a temperature of 37 °C. Neglecting the power input to the fan, determine the following: 1. The volumetric flow of air at the inlet of the cooling tower. 2. The mass flow of make-up water required.

Question
In an industrial plant where tires are made, there is a wet cooling tower which fulfills a very important part of the process, it must cool 15 kg/s of water
cooling temperature from 45 to 27°C, in a location where the atmospheric pressure is 95 kPa.
Atmospheric air enters the tower at 22 °C and 60% relative humidity, and leaves 0.87 saturated at a temperature of 37 °C.
Neglecting the power input to the fan, determine the following:
1. The volumetric flow of air at the inlet of the cooling tower.
2. The mass flow of make-up water required.
