  2. Chilled water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chilled_water

    Chilled water cooling is not very different from typical residential air conditioning where water is pumped from the chiller to the air handler unit to cool the air. Regardless of who provides it, the chilled water (between 3 and 6 °C (37 and 43 °F)) is pumped through an air handler , which captures the heat from the air, then disperses the ...

  3. Chilling requirement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chilling_requirement

    A chilling unit in agriculture is a metric of a plant's exposure to chilling temperatures. Chilling temperatures extend from freezing point to, depending on the model, 7 °C (45 °F) or even 16 °C (60 °F). [3] Stone fruit trees and certain other plants of temperate climate develop next year's buds in the summer.

  4. Newton's law of cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_cooling

    is the temperature of the object's surface (SI unit: K), is the temperature of the environment; i.e., the temperature suitably far from the surface (SI unit: K), is the coefficient of heat transfer (SI unit: second).

  5. Fahrenheit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit

    For an exact conversion between degrees Fahrenheit and Celsius, and kelvins of a specific temperature point, the following formulas can be applied. Here, f is the value in degrees Fahrenheit, c the value in degrees Celsius, and k the value in kelvins: f °F to c °C: c = ⁠ f − 32 / 1.8 ⁠ c °C to f °F: f = c × 1.8 + 32

  6. Deep water source cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_water_source_cooling

    Deep water source cooling (DWSC) or deep water air cooling is a form of air cooling for process and comfort space cooling which uses a large body of naturally cold water as a heat sink. It uses water at 4 to 10 degrees Celsius drawn from deep areas within lakes, oceans, aquifers or rivers, which is pumped through the one side of a heat exchanger .

  7. Chiller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiller

    A liquid (glycol based) chiller with an air cooled condenser on the rooftop of a medium size commercial building. In air conditioning systems, chilled coolant, usually chilled water mixed with ethylene glycol, from a chiller in an air conditioning or cooling plant is typically distributed to heat exchangers, or coils, in air handlers or other types of terminal devices which cool the air in ...

  8. Degree day - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_day

    (The degree, in Celsius and measured relative to a base temperature, is identical to the kelvin, the SI base unit). Expressed as a proper SI unit, a quantity of kelvin second is four orders of magnitude higher than the corresponding degree day (1 Celsius degree-day is 8.64×10 4 K·s; 1 Fahrenheit degree-day is 4.8×10 4 K·s).

  9. Newton scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_scale

    He set as 0 on his scale "the heat of air in winter at which water begins to freeze" (Calor aeris hyberni ubi aqua incipit gelu rigescere), reminiscent of the standard of the modern Celsius scale (i.e. 0 °N = 0 °C), but he has no single second reference point; he does give the "heat at which water begins to boil" as 33, but this is not a ...
