Gaisano Mall uses an atmospheric cooling tower to provide cooling for the jacket water of a four-stroke 309 KW diesel generator. The cooling tower efficiency is 53% at a temperature of approach of 11 deg. C. if ambient air has a relative humidity of 60% and dry bulb temperature of 31 deg. C, determine the cooling water supplied to the diesel engine in liters/hour.
