MadSci Network: Physics |
A previous Mad Scientist post states, "Sometimes, venturi effect can work for you, in the sense that controlling wind effect can substitute air conditioning system... inside some large corridor." Also, I read in National Geographic that the Arabs used the wind to make ice. I first became interested in this when I visited an ice cave in South Dakota. The cave maintains a year-round temperature below freezing even when the surface temp. is over 100 degrees F. I have not been able to find a single article that describes how to use this principle in architectural design. (Mad Scientist is a great site, thanks.)
