Passive cooling is a building design approach that focuses on heat gain control and heat dissipation in a building in order to improve the indoor thermal comfort with low or no energy consumption. [1][2] This approach works either by preventing heat from entering the interior (heat gain prevention) or by removing heat from the building (natural ...
The control circuit in a household HVAC installation. The wires connecting to the blue terminal block on the upper-right of the board lead to the thermostat. The fan enclosure is directly behind the board, and the filters can be seen at the top. The safety interlock switch is at the bottom left. In the lower middle is the capacitor.
Radiative cooling. In the study of heat transfer, radiative cooling[1][2] is the process by which a body loses heat by thermal radiation. As Planck's law describes, every physical body spontaneously and continuously emits electromagnetic radiation.
Ground-coupled heat exchanger. A qanat and windcatcher used as an earth duct, for both earth coupling and evaporative cooling. No fan is needed; the suction in the lee of the windtower draws the air up and out. A ground-coupled heat exchanger is an underground heat exchanger that can capture heat from and/or dissipate heat to the ground.
Electronic music, techno, electro, lo-fi house. Years active. 1990s–present. Labels. Bunker, Gold Coast, Strange Life, Ghostly International, Cocoon, L.I.E.S. Legowelt (real name Danny Wolfers) is a Dutch composer, electronic musician and visual artist, whose music spans a varying range of sub-genres.
Temperature control is a process in which change of temperature of a space (and objects collectively there within), or of a substance, is measured or otherwise detected, and the passage of heat energy into or out of the space or substance is adjusted to achieve a desired temperature. [1] Thermoregulation is the act of keeping the body at a ...
An air source heat pump (ASHP) is a heat pump that can absorb heat from air outside a building and release it inside; it uses the same vapor-compression refrigeration process and much the same equipment as an air conditioner, but in the opposite direction. ASHPs are the most common type of heat pump and, usually being smaller, tend to be used ...
A condenser is designed to transfer heat from a working fluid (e.g. water in a steam power plant) to a secondary fluid or the surrounding air. The condenser relies on the efficient heat transfer that occurs during phase changes, in this case during the condensation of a vapor into a liquid. The vapor typically enters the condenser at a ...
