In a forced draft cooling tower, water is cooled from 95 to 80°F by exposure to air with a wet bulb temperature of 70°F. In this case, the
range is 15°F.
approach is 10°F.
both (a) & (b).
neither (a) nor (b).
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Temperature range (T1 - T2) = 15°F.

Temperature approach (T2 - tw) = 10°F.

Wet-bulb temperature tw = 70°F.
