Abstract
Results are presented in terms of tower characteristics, water-outlet temperature, water to air Row rate ratio (L/G ratio) and efficiency. T ower performance decreases with an increase in the L/G ratio as is als o observed in other types of cooling towers. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
