2. Evaporative cooler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

   Evaporative cooling differs from other air conditioning systems, which use vapor-compression or absorption refrigeration cycles. Evaporative cooling exploits the fact that water will absorb a relatively large amount of heat in order to evaporate (that is, it has a large enthalpy of vaporization).

3. Pot-in-pot refrigerator - Wikipedia

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

   Several key considerations are important for determining if an evaporative cooling device will provide effective cooling and storage. 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 ...

4. Absorption refrigerator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_refrigerator

   Solar energy, burning a fossil fuel, waste heat from factories, and district heating systems are examples of heat sources that can be used. An absorption refrigerator uses two coolants: the first coolant performs evaporative cooling and then is absorbed into the second coolant; heat is needed to reset the two coolants to their initial states.

5. Passive cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_cooling

   Passive cooling covers all natural processes and techniques of heat dissipation and modulation without the use of energy. [1] Some authors consider that minor and simple mechanical systems (e.g. pumps and economizers) can be integrated in passive cooling techniques, as long they are used to enhance the effectiveness of the natural cooling process. [7]
