TP22-28: Two and Two does not Always Equal Four: Achieving Consistency in Cooling Tower DesignSome aspects of evaporative cooling tower design have changed considerably over decades while others have not. Calculation is an area that has seen much change, especially with the advent of computers. Some calculation approaches follow earlier graphical procedures, but many do not. Consistency is essentialfrom design to performance to testingin order to assure value, equity, accuracy, and protection against liability. Consistency requires clear and
