Cooling Tower water consumption

02/10/2009 4:23 PM

I would like to know the formula to calculate the water consumption or water being evaporated in cooling tower with respect to the entering and leaving water temperature, ambient air wet bulb temperature and flow rate. SI unit if possible.

Thanks

Thanks. It's great but I may have missed some diagrams. There is a blank section in the middle.
