Ti = 15;// Inlet temperature of air (in degree celsius)
To = 45;// Outlet temperature of air (in degree celsius)
H = 750;// Baromatric height (in mm of mercury)
Va = 30;// Volume of air (in meter cube per second)
nf = 0.4;// Fan efficiency
cp = 1000;// Specific heat of air at constant pressure (in J per kg per degree celsius)
V = 0.78;// Volume of 1 kg of air at N.T.P. (in meter cube)

//in book efficiency is equal to 95.7% and amount of cooling water 32.4 (litre per second).  The answers vary due to round off error
