  2. Thermoelectric cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_cooling

    Thermoelectric cooling uses the Peltier effect to create a heat flux at the junction of two different types of materials. A Peltier cooler, heater, or thermoelectric heat pump is a solid-state active heat pump which transfers heat from one side of the device to the other, with consumption of electrical energy, depending on the direction of the current.

  3. HVAC control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVAC_control_system

    HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) equipment needs a control system to regulate the operation of a heating and/or air conditioning system. [1] Usually a sensing device is used to compare the actual state (e.g. temperature) with a target state. Then the control system draws a conclusion what action has to be taken (e.g. start the ...

  4. Fan coil unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_coil_unit

    These motors are sometimes called DC motors, sometimes EC motors and occasionally DC/EC motors. DC stands for direct current and EC stands for electronically commutated.. DC motors allow the speed of the fans within a fan coil unit to be controlled by means of a 0-10 Volt input control signal to the motor/s, the transformers and speed switches associated with AC fan coils are not required.

  5. Direct digital control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_digital_control

    Direct digital control is the automated control of a condition or process by a digital device (computer). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Direct digital control takes a centralized network-oriented approach. All instrumentation is gathered by various analog and digital converters which use the network to transport these signals to the central controller.

  6. Air cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_cooling

    A Cooler Master computer heat sink has many heat pipes. CPU cooler Thermalright Le Grand Macho RT installed into the computer case. Air cooling is a method of dissipating heat. It works by expanding the surface area or increasing the flow of air over the object to be cooled, or both.

  7. Evaporative cooler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

    An evaporative cooler (also known as evaporative air conditioner, swamp cooler, swamp box, desert cooler and wet air cooler) is a device that cools air through the evaporation of water. Evaporative cooling differs from other air conditioning systems, which use vapor-compression or absorption refrigeration cycles.

  8. Evaporative cooling (atomic physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooling...

    Evaporative cooling is an atomic physics technique to achieve high phase space densities which optical cooling techniques alone typically can not reach. [1]Atoms trapped in optical or magnetic traps can be evaporatively cooled via two primary mechanisms, usually specific to the type of trap in question: in magnetic traps, radiofrequency (RF) fields are used to selectively drive warm atoms from ...

  9. D-pad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-pad

    Some older devices do not have D-pads as such, but simple single-axis, up/down or left/right pads. On some remotes, the D-pad can also be used to control a robot using a signal-compatible receiver. On remote control devices, the buttons on the D-pad function in the same manner as other buttons, and are generally used to navigate on-screen menus.
