In the cooling tower, we use the ATMOSPHERIC AIR (which is at room temperature) to cool down HOT WATER (having temp more than room temperature).
The outlet water temp (which is called cold water here) will be surely less than that of the inlet water temperature (which is called hot water here).

The Coldwater when entering the tower is cooling water & when it leaves the tower it's temperature will be increased.

Please give the Difference between the cooling water inlet and outlet temperature.

I think option B is the correct answer.

I think option B is correct because the range is always in between lower T to the max. T and max temp. Limit of the cooling tower is wet bulb temperature of surroundings.

But I think that cooling range refers to the difference between hot water entering and cold water leaving the tower. Please reply about correct answer!

Range = (T of hot water enter the tower- T of cooled water leaving the tower)
Approach = Cooled water - Wet bulb temperature of air
We can not cool below WBT by using CT.
