May,

The documentation for Type 51 describes the model’s operation and underlying physics.  Always refer to the documentation when you use a new model so you understand what it does and what it’s limitations are.  Type 51 is a wet cooling tower.

Everyone here likes to help but only when users take some time to describe where they need help.  This is like the situation if something was wrong with my car and I went to someone to get if fixed and simply said.  Please fix my car - with no other instructions...
