  2. Windcatcher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windcatcher

    Windcatchers that cool by drawing air over water use the water as a heat reservoir, but if the air is dry, they are also cooling the air with evaporative cooling. [2] The heat in the air goes into evaporating some of the water, and will not be released until the water re-condenses. This is a very effective way of cooling dry air. [2] Simply ...

  3. Ground-coupled heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-coupled_heat_exchanger

    Closed loop system: Air from inside the home or structure is blown through a U-shaped loop of typically 30 to 150 m (98 to 492 ft) of tube(s) where it is moderated to near earth temperature before returning to be distributed via ductwork throughout the home or structure. The closed loop system can be more effective cooling the air (during air ...

  4. Automotive air conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_air_conditioning

    New cars produced in the early 1990s contained the new refrigerant in their air conditioning systems. Owners of older cars with R-12 systems would either have to invest in an R-12 to R-134a conversion system, buy a new car, or find a qualified technician to recharge their older R-12 system. R-134a has been used in cars for almost 30 years.

  5. Weather Eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_Eye

    Combining heating, cooling, and ventilating, the new air conditioning system for the Nash cars was called the "All-Weather Eye". [ 13 ] The 1954 Nash models were the first American automobiles to have a front-end, fully integrated heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning system.

  6. Cold air intake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_air_intake

    Most vehicles manufactured from the mid-1970s until the mid-1990s have thermostatic air intake systems that regulate the temperature of the air entering the engine's intake tract, providing warm air when the engine is cold and cold air when the engine is warm to maximize performance, efficiency, and fuel economy.

  7. Air-cooled engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-cooled_engine

    Air-cooled engines rely on the circulation of air directly over heat dissipation fins or hot areas of the engine to cool them in order to keep the engine within operating temperatures. Air-cooled designs are far simpler than their liquid-cooled counterparts, which require a separate radiator , coolant reservoir, piping and pumps.

  9. Turbine inlet air cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbine_Inlet_Air_Cooling

    An inlet air cooling system installed in a desert-dry area to increase turbine power output. Turbine inlet air cooling is a group of technologies and techniques consisting of cooling down the intake air of the gas turbine. The direct consequence of cooling the turbine inlet air is power output augmentation.
