Expert Solution
Step 1

 Given-Information:-

Volume Flow Rate, V = 4500 m3/hr

Dry Bulb Temperature, T1 = 45°C

Relative Humidity, RH = 10 %

Air Leaving Air Cooler, RH = 80 %

To-Determine:-

1. Minimum water temperature at the basin of the air cooler.

2. The moisture rate added to the air.

3. The sensible and latent heat exchange.

4.  The effectiveness of the air cooler.
