The paper describes the calculation of evaporative-radiant cooling recycled water in summer air-conditioning systems. A differential equation for heat balance flowing down an inclined plane is derived. As one possible way increasing efficiency air conditioning systems based on by adiabatic evaporation flow use night-time evaporative water, followed daytime insulated storage tanks. temperature c...

     Temperature is considered as the basic element of climate and also the environmental limiting factor in LutDesert. In this research, in order to identify the temperature of Lut Desert located in east of central Iran, using remote sensing data, six series of MODIS sensor images related to June 24th & December 23rd 2002, and also January 22nd, March 22nd, June 22nd & September 24th 2003 were...

Studies on human thermal comfort in urban areas typically quantify and assess the influence of the atmospheric parameters studying the values and their patterns of the selected index or parameter. In this paper, the interpretation tools are the first derivative of the selected parameters (∆Parameter/∆t) and the violin plots. Using these tools, the effect of sites' configuration on thermal condi...

Body temperatures of Blanus cinereus recorded in the field in central Spain were positively correlated with corresponding substrate and air temperatures. Mean body temperature was 1.2°C higher than corresponding mean substrate temperature. Mean body temperature varied with time of day. Presence under stones during daylight hours was bimodal and seasonal variation was observed in body temperature.

The shape of the air flow in the interior is heavily influenced by the air distribution system and the way air enters and exits. By numerically simulating flow by computational fluid dynamics, one can determine the flow pattern and temperature distribution and, with the help of the results, provide an optimal design of the air conditioning system. In this study, a chamber was first constructed ...

Previously we have shown in dogs that tibial bone marrow and s.c. tissue temperatures are lower than rectal temperature during the plateau phase of whole body hyperthermia with the use of a radiant heating device. In an attempt to increase thermal dose to these sites during whole body hyperthermia, we applied insulation to an extremity prior to the plateau phase of heating. We found that extrem...
