Note 1.  Db = Dry Bulb(f) temperature, Wb = Mean coincident wet bulb temp (f).  Tout = Discharge Temperature (f).   Only hours where discharge temp is over 400(f) is included in total hours available for evaporative cooling.
Note 2.  Tout (Discharge temp) based on using Glacier-Cor(tm) Super Saturation cooling media, 12" thick @ 500FPM velocity and 95% Saturation Efficiency.
