Cooling Tower

The apparatus consists of a forced draught, counter flow type-cooling tower. A blower supplies cooling air. Air enters the tower at the bottom. Hot water is, obtained from a Water Bath. Hot water is sprayed over the mesh packing through the nozzles and it flows downwards. Operation of cooling of water occurs due to the Heat Transfer between air and water. So, water gets cooled. This student can study the operation of cooling tower and calculate the energy balance.
