COOLING TOWER

A cooling tower is a specialized heat exchanger in which air and water are brought into direct contact with each other in order to reduce the water’s temperature. As this occurs, a small volume of water is evaporated, reducing the temperature of the water being circulated through the tower. Cooling tower acts as the cooling […]

Psychrometric Chart

PSYCHROMETRY is the science of studying the thermodynamic properties of moist air and the use of these properties to analyze conditions and processes involving moist air. Moist air is a mixture of dry air and water vapour. In atmospheric air, water vapour content varies from 0 to 3% by mass. Is often used in the
