  2. Humidifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidifier

    One type of evaporative humidifier makes use of just a reservoir and wick. Sometimes called a "natural humidifier", these are usually non-commercial devices that can be assembled at little or no cost. One version of a natural humidifier uses a stainless steel bowl, partially filled with water, covered by a towel. A waterproof weight is used to ...

  3. Pot-in-pot refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pot-in-pot_refrigerator

    ECCs (evaporative cooling chambers) and clay pot coolers provide the most benefits when they are used in low humidity climates (less than 40% relative humidity), the temperature is relatively high (maximum daily temperature higher than 25 °C), water is available to add to the device between one and three times per day, and the device can be ...

  4. Evaporative cooler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

    An evaporative cooler (also known as evaporative air conditioner, swamp cooler, swamp box, desert cooler and wet air cooler) is a device that cools air through the evaporation of water. Evaporative cooling differs from other air conditioning systems, which use vapor-compression or absorption refrigeration cycles.

  5. Thomson problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_problem

    The Thomson problem also plays a role in the study of other physical models including multi-electron bubbles and the surface ordering of liquid metal drops confined in Paul traps. The generalized Thomson problem arises, for example, in determining arrangements of protein subunits that comprise the shells of spherical viruses. The "particles" in ...

  6. Pan evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_evaporation

    The controversy stems from the alternative views that these evaporative changes resulted, either from global radiative dimming, or from the complementary relationship between pan and terrestrial evaporation. Actually, these factors are not mutually exclusive but act concurrently." [22]

  7. Fenway–Kenmore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenway–Kenmore

    The Kenmore neighborhood is located north and west of Fenway, roughly separated by the Massachusetts Turnpike. Kenmore includes the part of Boston University campus east of the Boston University Bridge, [3] where it meets the Allston neighborhood, although due to the size of the university, it is sometimes considered to be its own neighborhood.
