For a countercurrent cooling tower subjected to a thermal disturbance by inlet air or water, theoretical equations were solved in terms of zeroth moments of air and water temperatures in the tower. Experiments were carried out by changing the temperature of inlet water at the tower top. The zeroth moments of water and air temperatures at either end of the tower predicted the relationships between the air-film and water-film heat transfer coefficients, which were then compared with the heat transfer coefficients measured from steady-state operation.
