  2. Cross ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_ventilation

    Cross-breezes work when two windows are opposite of each other. Cross ventilation is a natural phenomenon where wind, fresh air or a breeze enters upon an opening, such as a window, and flows directly through the space and exits through an opening on the opposite side of the building (where the air pressure is lower).

  3. Convection (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection_(Heat_transfer)

    Newton's law states that the rate of heat loss of a body is proportional to the difference in temperatures between the body and its surroundings while under the effects of a breeze. The constant of proportionality is the heat transfer coefficient. [7]

  4. Convection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection

    The difference of density in the fluid is the key driving mechanism. If the differences of density are caused by heat, this force is called as "thermal head" or "thermal driving head." A fluid system designed for natural circulation will have a heat source and a heat sink. Each of these is in contact with some of the fluid in the system, but ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drafting_(aerodynamics)

    Other drivers quickly picked up on Busch's strategy, and the two-car draft dominated the 2011 Daytona 500 and Budweiser Shootout. [9] This strategy had also been very prominent at Talladega. In 2011, two-car tandem drafting was used for the extent of the Aaron's 499 , with many drivers drafting their own teammates (e.g., Jimmie Johnson and Dale ...

  6. Draft (boiler) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_(boiler)

    In a water boiler, draft is the difference between atmospheric pressure and the pressure existing in the furnace or flue gas passage. [1] Draft can also be referred to as the difference in pressure in the combustion chamber area which results in the motion of the flue gases and the air flow.

  7. Draft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft

    Draft (boiler), difference between atmospheric pressure and the boiler pressure; Chimney draught, outgoing flow into chimney of gases from combustion; Draught excluder, used to eliminate cold draught and slow heat loss; Mechanical draft, incoming flow of air to burn fuel for a boiler or engine

  9. Breezeway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breezeway

    A breezeway is an architectural feature similar to a hallway that allows the passage of a breeze between structures to accommodate high winds, allow aeration, or provide aesthetic design variation. Often, a breezeway is a simple roof connecting two structures (such as a house and a garage); sometimes, it can be much more like a tunnel with ...
