A natural-draft cooling tower receives 250,000 ft3/min of air at standard atmospheric pressure, 70oF, and 45 percent relative humidity. The air leaves saturated at 100oF. 3500 gallons per minute of water at 104oF is cooled. Calculate

(a) the temperature of the water at the tower exit, and
(b) the necessary height of the tower if the total pressure losses are 2.00 lbf/ft2
