  2. Cooling tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_tower

    Most adiabatic cooling towers are also hybrid cooling towers. Dry cooling towers (or dry coolers) are closed circuit cooling towers which operate by heat transfer through a heat exchanger that separates the working coolant from ambient air, such as in a radiator, utilizing convective heat transfer. They do not use evaporation and are air-cooled ...

  3. Immersion cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immersion_cooling

    This increase in the high end of the temperature range allows data center operators to use entirely passive dry coolers, or much more efficient evaporative or adiabatic cooling towers instead of chiller-based air cooling or water chillers. This increase in the temperature range also allows operators using single-phase immersion coolants to more ...

  4. Adiabatic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_process

    An adiabatic process (adiabatic from Ancient Greek ἀδιάβατος (adiábatos) 'impassable') is a type of thermodynamic process that occurs without transferring heat or mass between the thermodynamic system and its environment. Unlike an isothermal process, an adiabatic process transfers energy to the surroundings only as work.

  5. Flash evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_evaporation

    The flash evaporation of a single-component liquid is an isenthalpic process and is often referred to as an adiabatic flash. The following equation, derived from a simple heat balance around the throttling valve or device, is used to predict how much of a single-component liquid is vaporized.

  6. Magnetic refrigeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_refrigeration

    Adiabatic demagnetization: The substance is returned to another adiabatic (insulated) condition so the total entropy remains constant. However, this time the magnetic field is decreased, the thermal energy causes the magnetic moments to overcome the field, and thus the sample cools, i.e., an adiabatic temperature change.

  7. 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.

    Inflation heated back up again in November, but it likely wasn’t bad enough to keep the Federal Reserve from cutting rates next week. Consumer prices were up 2.7% for the 12 months ended in ...

  9. Equivalent potential temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_potential...

    Air at the top of a mountain is usually colder than the air in the valley below, but the arrangement is not unstable: if a parcel of air from the valley were somehow lifted up to the top of the mountain, when it arrived it would be even colder than the air already there, due to adiabatic cooling; it would be heavier than the ambient air, and ...
