We experimentally study the dynamics of a degenerate one-dimensional Bose gas that is subject to a continuous outcoupling of atoms. Although standard evaporative cooling is rendered ineffective by the absence of thermalizing collisions in this system, we observe substantial cooling. This cooling proceeds through homogeneous particle dissipation and many-body dephasing, enabling the preparation ...

Self-paced endurance performance is compromised by moderate-to-high ambient temperatures that are evident in many competitive settings. It has become common place to implement precooling prior to competition in an attempt to alleviate perceived thermal load and performance decline. The present study aimed to investigate precooling incorporating different cooling avenues via either evaporative c...

Previous studies have shown that the amount of energy consumed by mechanical cooling can be significantly reduced indirect evaporative (IEC) process. By increasing heat recovery efficiency air handling units (AHUs), sensible performance achieved with IEC process for a significant part season. This study determined under which outdoor conditions achieved. With IEC, indoor humidity load cannot ad...

The aim of this study is to analyze the operating energy savings of a liquid desiccant and an indirect and direct evaporative cooling-assisted 100% outdoor air system (LD-IDECOAS) for marine applications. The LD-IDECOAS comprises a liquid desiccant (LD) unit and indirect and direct evaporative coolers (IEC and DEC) to meet the target supply air (SA) conditions. In this study, seawater was used ...

In order to extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables, they need to be properly stored. Proper storage means controlling both the temperature and relative humidity of the storage area. The essence of storage is of great importance because not all the harvested vegetables or crops in general will be used immediately after harvest so, measures of preserving the vegetables before it exceeds i...
