2. 4 DIY Air Conditioners That Actually Work - AOL

   www.aol.com/4-diy-air-conditioners-actually...

   Solar-Powered Air Conditioner. This air conditioner is extra sturdy since it's made from a plastic cooler, and the fan can be powered by a 12 volt battery or a 15-watt (1 amp) solar panel. This ...

3. Solar air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_air_conditioning

   Solar air conditioning, or "solar-powered air conditioning", refers to any air conditioning (cooling) system that uses solar power.. This can be done through passive solar design, solar thermal energy conversion, and photovoltaic conversion (sunlight to electricity).

4. List of solar-powered products - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_solar-powered_products

   The following is a list of products powered by sunlight, either directly or through electricity generated by solar panels. Solar air conditioning; Solar balloon; Solar charger. Strawberry Tree; Solar chimney; Solar-powered waste compacting bin; Solar cooker; Solar dryer; Solar-powered fan; Solar furnace; Solar inverter; Solar keyboard; Solar ...

5. Ground-coupled heat exchanger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-coupled_heat_exchanger

   Some consider that it is more efficient to pull air through a long tube than to push it with a fan. A solar chimney can use natural convection (warm air rising) to create a vacuum to draw filtered passive cooling tube air through the largest diameter cooling tubes. Natural convection may be slower than using a solar-powered fan.

6. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning - Wikipedia

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

   Traditional air conditioners run using alternating current, and hence, any direct-current solar power needs to be inverted to be compatible with these units. New variable-speed DC-motor units allow solar power to more easily run them since this conversion is unnecessary, and since the motors are tolerant of voltage fluctuations associated with ...

7. Solar heat collector and radiator for building roof - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_heat_collector_and...

   A solar heat collector, or solar thermal collector, is used today to capture solar radiation through electromagnetic radiation with the use of solar hot water panels, solar parabolic troughs, or solar towers. Today many people create their own DIY solar heat collectors, but the inventor William Goettl was the first to design and patent this ...

8. Solar energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_energy

   [1] [2] [3] It is an essential source of renewable energy, and its technologies are broadly characterized as either passive solar or active solar depending on how they capture and distribute solar energy or convert it into solar power. Active solar techniques include the use of photovoltaic systems, concentrated solar power, and solar water ...

9. Thermophotovoltaic energy conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermophotovoltaic_energy...

   Thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion is a direct conversion process from heat to electricity via photons.A basic thermophotovoltaic system consists of a hot object emitting thermal radiation and a photovoltaic cell similar to a solar cell but tuned to the spectrum being emitted from the hot object.
