A 250,000 kg/hr of water at 35°C enters a cooling tower where it is to be cooled to
17.5°C. The energy is to be exchanged with atmospheric air entering the units at
15°C and leaving the unit at 30°C. The air enters at 30% RH and leaves at 85% RH.
If all processes are assumed to occur at atmospheric pressure, determine the
percentage of total water flow that is make up water.
