    widely used in traditional cooling systems. These refrigerants accelerate the depletion of the Earth’s ozone layer. Therefore, adsorption air-conditioning technology attracted much attention recently as an alternative solution due to its advantage of environmental friendliness. This system as it powered by waste and/or solar heat can help to reduce required energy and thermal pollution. This paper presents an overview of research which have been carried out on adsorption cooling systems powered by waste

    dissipation in a building in order to improve the indoor thermal comfort with low or nil energy consumption is termed as Passive Cooling. (Santamouris & Asimakoupolos, 1996, Samuel, et al, 2013). This approach works either by preventing heat from entering the interior (heat gain prevention) or by removing heat from the building (natural cooling) (Limb, 1998). Natural cooling utilizes on-site energy, available from the natural environment, combined with the architectural design of building components

    prospect of losing their hair. DigniCap, a cooling system that chills patients' scalps to reduce chemo hair loss, has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FAD) for breast cancer. The DigniCap, made by Sweden's Dignitana AB, is the first version officially cleared by the FDA. The company will lease the device to cancer centers to use as their patients come in for chemotherapy (1). Introduction Some chemotherapy drugs can damage your hair cells. Cooling of the scalp is a proven approach to

    represents the Performance Evaluation of Hybrid Air Conditioning system using Indirect Evaporative Cooling Approach. The experimentation has been done with various cycle of operation viz. ventilation, mixed, with different dessicant materials and dessicant wheel speed. In desiccant wheel, if the regeneration temperature increases, the loads gets completely separated, thereby performance of cooling coil improves a lot i.e. 70% to 80%. However, system performance decreases due to increased power at

    airy and crispy texture (Nath and Chattopadhyay, 2008; Mariotti et al., 2006). Process for making starch-based puffed products includes gelatinization of starch, cooling, drying, and then explosive expansion (Hoke et al., 2007). After starch gelatinization, retrogradation of starch molecules, amylose and amylopectin occurred during cooling and aging of the pastes (Perdon et al., 1999; Ji et al., 2007; Mariotti et al., 2009). The amylose-amylopectin ratio, which commonly reported in term of amylose

    para. 1). It was created somewhat of a minor breakdown in the cooling circuit, which caused the temperature in the primary coolant to rise and the reactor to automatically shut down. The valve failed to close and the instrumentation did not reveal what was happening, causing the primary coolant to drain away. The chain of the events during the Three Mile Island Accident During the course of events, the relief valve on the reactor cooling system opened as it was supposed to within seconds of the shutdown

    Along with electricity and water, district cooling constitute a new form of energy service. District cooling is measured in refrigeration ton which is equivalent to 12000 BTU's per hour. Refrigeration Ton is the unit measure for the amount of heat removed. Refrigeration Ton is defined as the heat absorbed by one ton of ice (2000 pounds) causing it to melt completely by the end of one day (24 hours). District cooling systems can replace any type of air conditioning system, but primarily
