"The weather is very hot, but we can come to the station to have some water and enjoy the air conditioning. It's very comfortable," said Wang Qiang, a local street cleaner. Across the country, many more outdoor workers have also received proper care. Some delivery service companies and ...
A study of an ejector-vapor compression hybrid air-conditioning system using solar energy is presented by Dang et al. (2012). A review of ejector enhanced vapor compression refrigeration and heat pump systems is given by Sarkar (2012). A combined polygeneration system for cooling, heating, and...
The claim of fiberglass batt air leakage, supported vigorously by the foam insulation industry, is equally vigorously counter-argued by the fiberglass insulation companies who point out that properly installed the air flow rate through the fiberglass itself in fiberglass insulated cavities is very low....
which could provide decentralized heat and power in a flexible way [60,61]. Introducing such plants to buildings’ heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, they can provide electrical power based on the demand of either the local power grid or the object power supply. ...

Currently, there are several developments in the sector of small and micro scale CHP units, which could provide decentralized heat and power in a flexible way [60,61]. Introducing such plants to buildings’ heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, they can provide electrical po...
Boiling has many industrial applications, such as in steam production, distillation, refining, dehydration, cooling of nuclear reactors, metallurgical processing, air conditioning, refrigeration and cryogenics, fluid handling and control, power systems, electronics cooling, on-orbit storage, microchip ...
Public transport is also hit and miss. Unsurprisingly, underground lines are often some of the hottest spots in a heat wave – although some have aircon. It’s worth planning ahead – travel app Citymapper, for example, allows users to specify public transport routes with air conditioning. ...
As a result of this phenomenon, increased demand for air conditioning can be highlighted. In developed countries, almost 8% of the total electricity generated is used to meet this exigency [9]. Furthermore, the reduction in human thermal comfort outdoors can inhibit the choice of walking and ...
Figure 1. Complete thermo-mechanical, mechanical and thermal treatment for the microstructural evolution and conditioning of the boron-free (CP-B0) and boron-containing (CP-B60) steels, respectively. To determine the phases formed after the Q&P treatments, X-ray diffraction tests were carried ou...
