A wet cooling tower receives air with a relative humidity of 75% at a rate of 12,000 m3/s. The air exits at a relative humidity of 100% and a temperature of 35°C. The cooling water enters at a temperature of 40°C and exits at a temperature equal to 2°C above the ambient temperature. Plot the mass flow rate of cooling water entering the tower and the rate of evaporation of the cooling water as the temperature of the moist air entering the tower varies between 2°C and 20°C.
