Abstract
A cooling system including a ventilator that exchanges atmosphere between parts of a building that are at differing heights. The ventilator includes an outer conduit that extends from an upper end thereof downward to a lower end thereof. An inner conduit extends substantially the entire length of the outer conduit. Both the outer and inner conduits are open at their respective upper ends and lower ends. Temperatures of atmosphere both surrounding and within the outer conduit and the inner conduit induce an exchange of atmosphere between the ventilator and surrounding atmosphere.
Claims26
A cooling system including a ventilator adapted for inclusion in a building for exchanging atmosphere between parts of the building at differing heights thereof, the ventilator comprising:
- a. an outer conduit adapted for being juxtaposed with at least a portion of the building, the portion being selected from a group consisting of:
- i. a roof;
- ii. a floor;
- and
- iii. a wall, and
- the outer conduit having a length that extends from an upper end thereof downward to a lower end thereof;
- b. an inner conduit extending substantially along the entire length of the outer conduit;
- and
- c. one or more cooling tubes extending along the inner conduit,
- wherein the one or more cooling tubes are connected to a pan and have a fluid therein.
A cooling system for inclusion in a building, the cooling system comprising:
- one or more cooling tubes that are configured to be supported by a roof and extend therethrough into a building space;
- a pan supported by the one or more cooling tubes, the pan being configured to receive a fluid therein that assists in providing fluid to the one or more cooling tubes,
- wherein thermosiphon cooling of the fluid in the one or more cooling tubes assists in cooling the building space.
