Here is my case:
Exhaust flue (assume its properties are similar to air):
Temp.in = 500 deg.C
Vol. flow = 8,000 m3/hr
Cooling water(spray to the hot air):
Temp. in = 20 deg.C
Temp. out, = 43 deg.C (this is the statutory requirement of my place for waste water discharging temperature)
Questions:
1. What is the required rate of water for 100% water discharge?
2. Can I figure out the evaporation rate (if any) by any means?
3. If the water are allowed to fully evaporate by recirculating the cooling water, the water consumption should be substantially reduced. Yet, the final exhaust air temperature (with steam at 100deg.C) is required to further suppress to 60 deg.C since a temperature sensitive device for smoke removal is installed at the very end of the discharge side. Any good idea, other than air dilution?
Zillion thanks in advance.
