QUOTE(FLampard @ Oct 19 2010, 11:00 PM) Do u all think it will work? constructive critism plz. Have you tried it? How many battrey are you using? What is the amount of ice you put? Perhaps the air cond is more efficient if you have to use a lot of ice. |

QUOTE(RahXeph0n @ Oct 25 2010, 10:35 AM) Don't laugh at the idea of ice cubes. I wish I had the source, But I have read of american city towers using ice cubes to supplement the cooling systems during summer, because when the ice cubes get VERY large, they are tremendously efective (way more effective than normal air conditioning heat exchange units). At the end of the day, the melted ice is still cool and easy to refreeze. The total energy savings are quite substantial. Maybe if you're interested you can google it up ( = When you are talking about efficiency, have you considered the energy consume to turn it into ice? The energy of the fan to constantly blow at the ice. Compare with air-con who does not have to freeze water into ice at the start. |
