QUESTION 16 – COOLING TOWERS AND EVAPORATIVE CONDENSERS Water flows at 5000 kg/h and 40°C into a cooling tower and is cooled to 26°C. The unsaturated air enters the tower at 20°C with a relative humidity of 0.4. It leaves as saturated air at 30°C. The pressure is constant at 1 bar throughout. Calculate (a) the mass flow of air per hour. (b) the mass of water evaporated per hour.

1. A circus performer stretches a 16 kg tightrope between two towers separated by 40 meters. He strikes one end of the rope and sends a wave along it toward the other tower. He notes that it takes the wave on the string 2.9 seconds to reach the opposite tower and come back. (a) At what frequency would he have to hop up and down to create a standing wave with 5 nodes? (b) What tension would the rope have?

Newton's Law of Cooling: Boil water in a cup and cool in a room at 32∘C. Assume that Newton's Law of Cooling is satisfied: the rate of change of water temperature is proportional to the difference between the temperature of the water and the temperature of the environment. We take the water temperature after 5 minutes and find it to be 83∘C. Establish and solve an Initial Value Problem to express the water temperature as a function of time, graph...
