How to calculate the circulation flow in makeup water

[Vicky057]

Actually i have to calculate the make up water capacity of cooling tower . M= E+B+W . but while calculating the particulars , i am needing the circulation flow rate . i searched it in internet also but it simply showing 18000 so getting confused . Is it 18000 a constant or anything there to calculate .

If anybody have the answer , please give the answer .

The internet's a big place. Perhaps if you shared the link where you found the figure 18000, some help will come your way to explain what it means.

Yeah, the internet sometimes just gives you strange numbers. When I search "what is the answer to life, the universe and everything?" it just gives me "42". Now, what's that supposed to mean? I'm also wondering if it is a constant or something that can be calculated. It also didn't show me the units.
