THEORY OF SKY-COOLING.
THEORIE DE LA REFRIGERATION NOCTURNE PAR RADIATIONS.
Author(s) : ABULNAGA B. E.
Type of article: Periodical article
Summary
THE PRINCIPLES OF SKY-COOLING ARE REPORTED AND SIMPLE BUILDING PROCESSES ARE PROPOSED FOR SKY-COOLERS WITH SCREENS, SELECTIVE SURFACES, AND REFLECTIVE WALLS. A FREEZER AND A RADIATOR CAN BE INTEGRATED IN A SINGLE TANK OR CONNECTED BY A HEAT PIPE. THE FORMER DEVICE WAS USED FOR THE DESALTING OF BRACKISH WATERS AND THE LATTER CAN BE EASILY INTEGRATED IN EXISTING DWELLINGS. NATURAL SKY-COOLING CAN OPEN NEW VISTAS FOR AGRICULTURE IN DESERTIC OR RURAL AREAS. J.L.
