Thermal Pollution and Cooling Tower Analysis

The document describes calculations related to a cooling tower. It provides calculations for: (1) The relative humidity and composition by volume and weight of air entering and leaving the cooling tower. (2) The pounds of water vapor per 1000ft3 of mixture and per 1000ft3 of dry air entering and leaving. (3) The mass of water evaporated if 800,000ft3 of air enters the cooling tower per day. The calculations analyze changes in temperature, humidity, air composition and water vapor content as air passes through the cooling tower.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
18.16 Thermal pollution is the introduction of waste heat into the environment
quality. Most thermal pollution results from the discharge of cooling water into
the surroundings. It has been suggested that power plants use cooling towers and
recycle water rather than dump water into the streams and rivers. In a proposed
cooling tower, air enters and passes through baffles over which warm water from
the heat exchanger falls. The air enters at a temperature of 80°F and leaves at a
temperature of 70°F. The partial pressure of the water vapor in the air entering is
5 mmHg and the partial pressure of the water vapor in the air leaving the tower is
18 mmHg . The total pressure is 740 mmHg . Calculate
a. The relative humidity of the air-water vapor mixture entering and of the
mixture leaving the tower
b. The percentage composition by volume of the moist air entering and of that
leaving

c. The percentage composition by weight of the mosit air


entering and of that leaving
d. The percent humidity of the moist air enetering and
leaving
e. The pounds of water vapor per 1000ft3 of mixture both
entering and leaving
f. The pounds of water vapor per 1000ft3 of vapor free air
both entering and leaving
g. The weight of water evaporated if 800.000 ft3 of air (at
740mmHg and 80°F) enters the cooling tower per day
