2. Ice storage air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_storage_air_conditioning

   A partial storage system minimizes capital investment by running the chillers nearly 24 hours a day. At night, they produce ice for storage and during the day they chill water for the air conditioning system. Water circulating through the melting ice augments their production. Such a system usually runs in ice-making mode for 16 to 18 hours a ...

3. Free cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_cooling

   Free cooling is an economical method of using low external air temperatures to assist in chilling water, which can then be used for industrial processes, or air conditioning systems. The chilled water can either be used immediately or be stored for the short- or long-term. When outdoor temperatures are lower relative to indoor temperatures ...

4. Freeze stat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeze_stat

   In practical situations, when an air coil freeze stat is not used, bypassed, or defeated, the air coil can freeze, and this causes a lack of air flow to the facility. [3] By contrast, when a water coil freeze stat is not used, the water coil can get so cold that it can freeze the cooling liquid in the exchanger and burst the exchanger. [5]

5. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and...

   An air conditioning system, or a standalone air conditioner, provides cooling and/or humidity control for all or part of a building. Air conditioned buildings often have sealed windows, because open windows would work against the system intended to maintain constant indoor air conditions.

6. Vapor-compression refrigeration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor-compression...

   A representative pressure–volume diagram for a refrigeration cycle. Vapour-compression refrigeration or vapor-compression refrigeration system (VCRS), [1] in which the refrigerant undergoes phase changes, is one of the many refrigeration cycles and is the most widely used method for air conditioning of buildings and automobiles.

7. What Is Freezing Rain? 5 Reasons It's The Worst - AOL

   www.aol.com/news/freezing-rain-5-reasons-worst...

   This is analogous to water dripping in the back of an overcooled refrigerator and freezing when it hits the shelf. That ice builds up on the shelf until either the fridge warms up or you chip away ...

8. Prepare for the coldest Arctic blast: How to keep your pipes ...

   Water expands when it freezes, Sperlich said, so people should drip indoor facets when temps dip below 32 degrees. Just make sure you drip the farthest faucet from your main valve. "You don't have ...

9. Evaporative cooler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

   Evaporative cooling is the conversion of liquid water into vapor using the thermal energy in the air, resulting in a lower air temperature. The energy needed to evaporate the water is taken from the air in the form of sensible heat , which affects the temperature of the air, and converted into latent heat , the energy present in the water vapor ...
