The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of fluid velocity and the distance between zig zagfilters on the cooling tower by varying the distance between zig zag foam bio filters. In this study using bio filterfoam material in the form of zig zg by using wire mesh where the tested distance is 5cm, 10cm, and also 15cm. Thenthe water is heated using a heater until it reaches a temperature of 40ºC and then the water is flowed up with a pipeusing a pump and released using a nozzle, then the hot water will go down to the reservoir by passing the bio filterfoam filter that has been installed with a distance of 5cm , 10cm and 15cm. Where there is also a disposal valve thatis done that is closed and faucets are also open ½ and fully open. Good cooling value is indicated by good results oncooling or also cooling faster which is 5cm which results in an average cooling value of 36.53 ºC when the exhaustvalve is fully open, while the value is not good or less optimal cooling it is shown when the drain valve is closed at azig zag distance of 10cm and also 15cm which yields 37.60 ºC data at a zig zag distance of 15cm.
