  2. Cooling tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_tower

    Dry cooling towers (or dry coolers) are closed circuit cooling towers which operate by heat transfer through a heat exchanger that separates the working coolant from ambient air, such as in a radiator, utilizing convective heat transfer. They do not use evaporation and are air-cooled heat exchangers.

  3. Chilled water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chilled_water

    The cooling towers of a large chilled water system. As part of a chilled water system, the condenser water absorbs heat from the refrigerant in the condenser barrel of the water chiller and is then sent via return lines to a cooling tower, which is a heat exchange device used to transfer waste heat to the atmosphere.

    The SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating of a unit is the cooling output during a typical cooling-season divided by the total electric energy input during the same period. The higher the unit's SEER rating the more energy efficient it is. smoke damper A damper or adjustable louver designed to augment the ventilation of a space during ...

  5. Ice storage air conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_storage_air_conditioning

    Illustration of an ice storage air conditioning unit in production. Ice storage air conditioning is the process of using ice for thermal energy storage. The process can reduce energy used for cooling during times of peak electrical demand. [1] Alternative power sources such as solar can also use the technology to store energy for later use. [1]

  6. Immersion cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immersion_cooling

    Immersion cooling is an IT cooling practice by which servers are completely or partially immersed in a dielectric fluid that has significantly higher thermal conductivity than air. Heat is removed from the system by putting the coolant in direct contact with hot components, and circulating the heated liquid through heat exchangers .

  8. Economizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economizer

    When the outside air's dry- and wet-bulb temperatures are low enough, a water-side economizer can use water cooled by a wet cooling tower or a dry cooler (also called a fluid cooler) to cool buildings without operating a chiller. They are historically known as the strainer cycle, but the water-side economizer is not a true thermodynamic cycle.
