The only thing that I've heard of with "wet cooling" in, is a wet cooling tower. A Wet Cooling tower for the closed-circuit cooling of water where the water to be cooled comes into direct contact with the cooling air dissipating heat by evaporation and air heating. The air draught required for cooling can be induced by fans or by the natural effect of the stack of the cooling tower building (natural draught cooling tower).

So I don't know if that answers your question or not, but i hope it helps...

If wet bulb temperature is 35 and outlet water temperature from cooling tower is 25 then the cooling tower approach will be effective and what is the solution?

What is the difference between cooling and chilling?

Chilling is the reduction in temperature of the required solvent below than its wet bulb temperature while the rest is considered as cooling i.e. if we are only reducing the temperature of solvent to an extent such that the final temperature is above its wet bulb temperature than it will be considered as COOLING.
