What do you know about cooling tower capacity?

Question

Accepted Answer

Cooling tower capacity refers to the amount of heat that can be removed from a system by the cooling tower.

Cooling tower capacity is typically measured in tons of refrigeration or kilowatts.
It is influenced by factors such as the flow rate of water, the temperature difference between the inlet and outlet water, and the wet bulb temperature.
Cooling tower capacity can be calculated using the formula: Q = mcΔT, where Q is the heat load, m is the flow rate of water, c is the specific heat of water, and ΔT is the temperature difference.
Properly sizing a cooling tower is crucial to ensure efficient heat removal and system performance.
