Condenser cooling water for a power plant is stored in a cooling pond that is 1000 m
Question:
Condenser cooling water for a power plant is stored in a cooling pond that is 1000 m long by 500 m wide. However, because of evaporative losses, it is necessary to periodically add "makeup" water to the pond in order to maintain a suitable water level. Assuming isothermal conditions at 27°C for the water and the air, that the free stream air is dry and moving at a velocity of 2 m/s in the direction of the 1000-m pond length, and that the boundary layer on the water surface is everywhere turbulent, determine the amount of makeup water that should be added to the pond daily.
