Abstract
An air cooling system includes an intake line, a heat exchanger, an exhaust line, and an amount of frozen carbon dioxide. The intake line connects the heat exchanger to an air source, and the exhaust line connects the heat exchanger to an air destination. The frozen carbon dioxide is disposed against at least a portion of the heat exchanger to draw heat away from the air. Optionally, a system can include dual heat exchangers connected via a bridge line, with the frozen carbon dioxide being disposed there between.
Claims17
An air cooling system, said system comprising:
- an intake line connected to an air source, said intake line for carrying the air from the air source;
- a heat exchanger having an exterior surface, said heat exchanger being connected to said intake line;
- an exhaust line connected to said heat exchanger, said exhaust line for carrying the air away from said heat exchanger to an air destination;
- and
- an amount of frozen carbon dioxide disposed against at least a portion of the exterior surface of said heat exchanger to transfer heat away from the air.
