3. Mass of Air, ma
By Energy Balance:
m42h42 + maha = m43h43 + mbhb
Where:
m42 = m43 = water
ma = mb = air
ha = h at tw (17.2 oC) = 50 kJ/kg
hb = h at 28 oC DB and RH ( 100%) = 90 kJ/kg
mw(h43 h42) = ma (ha- hb)
ma =
633.978 ( 83.96176.042 )
(5090)
ma = 1459.45 kg/s

m 1 Ra T 1
(PP v )
Where:
T1 = T at tw (17.2 oC) and RH 60% = 22.5 oC
Pv = RH x Psat at 22.5 oC = (0.6)(2.72 kPa) = 1.632 kPa
P = 101.325 kPa

Va = 1242.179 m3/s
6. Cooling Tower Area
t = (23.34 + 20)/2 = 21.67 oC
vw = vf @ 21.67 oC
= .0010022 m3/kg
= 997.804 kg/m3
Thus,
Vw = 633.978/997.804 x (60 sec/min) (264.2 gal/m3)
Vw= 10, 071.937 gpm
Cooling Tower Area = 10, 071.937 gpm / 3
