Qatar is hot. Even in the winter, during the 2022 World Cup temperatures are predicted to be between 25-30 degrees celsius. So how do you bring temperatures low enough to play football in?
Air-conditioning is the last line of defence. So how are the organisers managing the heat? How have architects made sure the stadiums stay cool? And how are all of those air-conditioning units going to work?

if not for qatar, we would have been enjoying the world cup right now
smh say less😔
If not for *FIFA
Okay hater!
If not for corruption **
Blame goes to FIFA
The Stadiums should also install large water coolers near the stands so people that need it, can get clean and cold water when the temperatures get bad.
But that would mean giving up a major source of revenue from selling water. In other words, no chance. The Qataris want their 💰
@@FaustoTheBoozehound That is true, especially how many people will not buy alcohol, either because of rules or it being very expensive.
@@FaustoTheBoozehound hosting the tournament was never about money
@@FaustoTheBoozehound Qatar spent FAR more on infrastructure than they could EVER make back from selling drinks during games. Come on now.
@@omarhamad3252 It is technically it was about boosting tourism to qatar so
As a civil engineer this is very interesting and relevant to me. My lecturer once did a project on district cooling in Taiwan since they have a very deep ocean on the east side. The project would have pumped water from the depths of the ocean to cool shops and government buildings in the towns that bordered the coast but it ended up being too expensive for their government to pursue. Perhaps if they held the world cup that idea would return haha
I am currently working on my EE and noticed that they are using the sun to their advantage. It would be cool to see the studies they have done on photovoltaic technology because currently about 47% of the suns rays is converted to light. If anyone knows where they put these studies post a link or sum
haha
The Sydney opera house is cooled using water from the harbour. It’s the only unesco heritage centre with a 5 star energy rating.
@@wizcombo Google scholar usually gives you a good chance of finding any study (I know this sounds like "just google it, dude" but it's a genuinely good tip if you didn't know haha)
As long as "@EWave" made any supercilious, oh-so-ingenious comments along the lines of "herr qUaTaR derr", then as a self-described voracious researcher - I'm not willing to just second "@@majsketchup"..
...But I'm willing to do one better and directly cite the papers to them.
Ngl, as someone who works in HVAC I admire the amount of work put into this. I mean I hate them for ruining the World Cup, but from an engineering point of view they did remarkable work
probably contracted the work out and paid immense amount of money . Needless to say I do appreciate their effort but I still have my doubts
How have they ruined the World Cup? Is it because it’s in winter? I would prefer it to be in the summer as well but a winter World Cup isn’t terrible. The only real problem is it messes with the season’s schedule.
@@advenco344 that and it not being a real football country. Fans having to pay insane amounts of money to go. Imagine always following your country and now you cant go simply because its too expensive. So yes they ruined it in my opinion.
@@advenco344 Because it was given to qatar due to bribes and the fact that qatar has violated human rights laws to facilitate it with their kafala system
@@scott19087 how is it not a real football country? Football is by far the most popular sport there. Also, if you’re going to bring up that they don’t have a “football culture” then that’s not a fair argument because Qatar as a country is pretty young having only been founded in 1971.
Having to pay a lot of money is definitely a valid reason though, and I agree with you on that. It should be more affordable for the average match going fan.
Periodic reminder that we should be having a banging World Cup summer rn
Exactly that smh
Oh yeah i live in the Southern Hemisphere. I finally get a summer world cup!
It’s good we don’t because players like Van Dijk Modric have been complaining about playing so many games and being burned out. Some players have been playing non stop since they restarted football after Covid 19 and then Euro 2021 immediately after that. Player health is important
While the location isn't ideal, I quite like a Winter WC (provided players get the full summer off).
They're playing year round atm. While Internationals extended the season a bit, if I were a player, I'd relish this rare 'chill' period before the season kicks in.
I hope 5 subs makes this new schedule much more bearable too.
Hope we get to see the first dust storm of the world cup tournament live on tv.
There are no dust storms in Qatar during November-December
@@RexGalilae less common but they still happen.
@@tomteatom
Do you live in or near Qatar by any chance?
Extremely unlikely to have dust storms outside of march-may as the right regional weather conditions for it (wind speed, direction, etc) line up right before the onset of the summer season
In mid November, the summer is a good 6 months away
@@RexGalilae been there on business twice in the past decade, in December and both times I've been kept inside the hotel for a day because of dust storms. They may not be common but they happen often enough that to say they "don't happen" is complete nonsense.
@كات قيرل Well that's weird because Doha News has reported how bad the sandstorms there are this year, and that they're pretty much weekly.
Loved the monopoly reference with the water works and electric company
As a Brazilian living in tropical weather it is a little funny hearing about all these technological measures being applied to... 25 to 30 degrees Celsius temperatures? That's like mildly hot over here
I'm from South Africa, and I somewhat agree, but the heat in the middle east is so dry, you can feel the dehydration of your body 🤣 it is different to a tropical or sub-tropical heat (which can also be bad in a different way). And originally these measures were planned because of the summer heat...40-45 degrees. That would be terrible to play in!
Yeah and not, as someone who lives in a place with similar temperature it isn't that hot BUT in a stadium filler with people all around you their heat and you're heat increases and for the players a 90 minute world cup match with 35 degrees would be too much
@@aldobonaso3481 agreed, with a hot climate and low humidity will slowly boils you from the inside out
@@aldobonaso3481 so there’s less humidity?
@@advenco344 exactly, less humidity. In a humid climate you sometimes struggle to breath because of the moisture in the air. But in a dry climate, you feel like your lungs are on fire!
Fun Fact: Spain (2010) and Germany (2014) are the only European teams to win the World Cup outside the continent of Europe. The last time the World cup was in Asia, Germany was the only European team to have a top 4 finish. Qatar 2022 is the second tournament in Asia.
Number of world cup finals played outside Europe by a European team.-
*Germany*-1986 (Mexico City, Mexico), 2002 (Yokohama, Japan), 2014 (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)
*Italy*-1970 (Mexico City, Mexico), 1994 (Los Angeles, USA)
*Netherlands*-1978 (Buenos Aires, Argentina), 2010 (Johannesburg, South Africa)
*Spain*-2010 (Johannesburg, South Africa)
*Czechoslovakia*-1962 (Santiago, Chile)
*France*-0
*England*-0
*Portugal*-0
I mean, Brazil were the first team to win a tournament outside of their continent, beating Sweden in Sweden in 1958 5-2 in the final. A teenager called Pele did well in that tournament - I wonder whatever happened to him?
Seems odd to have not mentioned the first team to do it, and Argentina almost did in in Mexico '86 and Italy '90. Brazil also did it in USA '94 as well, and S Korea/Japan in 2002.
@@TheMixCurator didn’t know those countries were in Europe
Turkey reached the semis in 2002 as well, they're part of UEFA
@@ILLALLU so is Kazakhstan( a country that shares borders with China), but it is not European countries.

These are all nice inventions that will benefit everyone. Yet none of this would be necessary (including moving the WC to winter) if FIFA didn't make a ridiculous choice based solely on Qatar lining its officials pockets with oil money.
oil AND slavery!
natural gas not oil
This world cup isn't the only corrupt world cup and Qatar isn't the best of places I agree, neither for football nor in general. But you people talking about "Messing with the Global Football Calendar" as if only Europe plays football is so stunningly one dimensional in view. Yes this world cup was bought. Along with others. But if social change in Qatar is what you want then the best way to do that is to show that you support them if they're trying to step in the direction you want which they are trying to do (whether they really want to or not) and a lot of people just seem to be complaining that the world cup isn't going to one of the places it has always gone
@@micayahritchie7158 (2/2 I guess) that doesn’t even include the labor deaths because I can’t give any official or confirmed numbers out due in part to the fact that Qatar refuses to release those numbers. They are refusing to admit how many have died building their stadiums. Bit morbid that and The Mirror reported thousands but nothing official until somebody in Qatar gets those numbers
@@micayahritchie7158 are you honestly expecting big social changes to happen. They already said LGBTQ flags will be confiscated and unmarried couples are not allowed to sleep in the same hotel room. And that's just two out of the wide array of conservative rules that will remain unchanged.
It was well worth the backhanders and hundreds of worker deaths to allow the fine footballing nation of Qatar to host the worlds most prestigious sporting event
And now we'll have the footballing titans that are Canada and the USA host it in 2026. Partnering Mexico: a cartel infested gangland that behead police officers and dumps their corpses in their local town centres and also offer the Qatar heat without the comfort of AC.
Enjoy your 3000 mile trip between Canada and Mexico when football is back in at home in the white people's back yard........ Where they call it soccer....
Hundreds? Thousands and thousands.
a lot more than hundreds of deaths
They're cooling the stadiums with solar panels... So it's fine, plus they're making that technology available to the rest of the world.... Aaaand most of the migrant workers are from the Indian subcontinent... So they don't really matter either. That's the way it goes.
I'm really hoping the England team keep taking the knee while at the World Cup though.
Am I against the poor working conditions and deaths of the immigrant workers, yes I am. But, I fail to understand the concept of "fine footballing nation". Since, football is a global sport and the revenue is generated globally to run the game; it's hard for me to understand how just a few specific "fine footballing nations" can lay the claim what to do with it. It is a different topic, that Qatar may have gotten the deal through the backdoor. Let's for example, say that India wants to host the WC in the future, but India as a footballing nation, has never reached the WC. So, should India be allowed to do that based on history?
I love this channel and the Tifo Podcast, I listen to it every week when I go to work. As a Thermal Energy Engineer I find this video the perfect match between my dear football and actual job. Amazing
Yessirrrr headphones in and to work I go.
Nice ,short, straight to the point and still packed with rich details....bravo
This’ll be an experience for sure; whether it’s good or bad is left to be seen.
For all the workers who already died building the stadiums, its already been seen.
I think everyone already knows the answer
50% chance bad
49% chance awful
6500 workers dead, migrant workers with no rights, unsustainable and unnecessary stadiums, bribes and the fist plastic wc ever.
No it’s not to be seen
@@SamuelCLaub 1% the games get cancelled before it starts?
I work as a medic here in abu dhabi, and most of the time in hazza bin Zayed stadium. Believe me the AC of the stadium upto the pitch is superb so cold I have to wear my jacket when working in november-december
I'm curious what the temperature capacity limit for those solar panels are. My parents have installed solar on their house, and anything above 90 degrees Fahrenheit puts stress on the panels. It'll be interesting to see what Qatar did that makes their any different.
Nothing, they just installed more panels
By... placing a hundred dozens of them more? I mean your parents only got a single panel so it is highly uncomparable to Qatar who got like a thousand of those. 90 F is the limit for one panel but let's say what happens if your parents got like 10 of them? There will not be any stress and your house will be fine.
@@gaoaibai6243 pv panels just perform 10-20% worse at high temperatures, that'll be just as true at scale
BAISCALLY SOLAR WASTEAGE
Maybe water cooling them
I’m curious if all this cooling or the heat of the stadiums will have an affect on the ball.
If the pitch is affected by this cooling system then the ball will be too. Mostly wet at first and the sun will dry up the pitch until half time arrives.
no it wont affect due to some past tests in the stadium with some local tournaments and continental tournament being held in the world cup stadiums.
Wow they didn’t patent it, how Nice of them!
Hyberlab is the specialist in the outdoor cooling. hybrlab did the same thing in 3 open places in Qatar, Umm Al-Sanaim Park, Al-Gharafa Park, and Rawdat Al-Hamamah Park. i hope all Qatar will use this system because it is truly a blessing, especially in the summer heat.
To think in the summer of Mexico you'll have the heat of Qatar without the fancy cooling system
Uhh Mexico is about as hot as a lot of the US it isn’t bad
We should just have the cup in Antarctica according to you. The heat is hardly an issue for anyone, if you don’t like it don’t go. I’m sure there’s PLENTY of people who’d go instead of you. The issue with Qatar is the myriad of human rights issues. Mexico is a country in disarray but it doesn’t bring in migrants to enslave them, only Qatar and a couple other countries do things like that.
@@Otoskire good point
I just surfed the temperature in Mexico City 27 June 2022. Highest 26°C, Lowest 14°C. World cup is usually b/w 15 June and 15 July. But looks like Monterrey is hottest. Highest 37°C, Lowest 23°C
@@johnhonai4601 Mexico City is over 2 km above sea level, so that kind of cool temps are quite normal
What about cooling the pitch for the players?
If the ground is cooled I think that will naturally reach the players

Temperature drop that much during night?
That is the first genuinely interesting comment I've read in this entire comments section, please expound on that point, because most everyone seems to not know how this is going to go down because few have been to or lived in Qatar, I'd like to know what its like from someone who knows what they're talking about

What are the odds that some key players for national teams get injured right before the WC since it’s happening a few months after the season starts
What are the odds that players are always injured for a summer World Cup thanks to them coming off the end of a long season and all the big, important games that happen at the end of a season?
Some players will always priorities club over country. However there are glaring political and human right issues which cannot be ignored with this World Cup.
@@bobhob35 there are glaring political and human rights issues in every country that hosts any sporting event.
@@danpreston564 True but for most host nations they're a lot less glaring than Qatar. Did you know that in the Qatari legal system adultery is punishable by death when a Muslim woman and a non-Muslim man are involved and homosexuality has a prison sentence of up to 7 years (or death for Muslims, the predominant religious group in the country). Can't remember the last world cup host that was that draconian.
players got injured all the time, there won't be any visible differences in numbers
i was thhere 1 month ago gor peru australia unfortunately my team lost and in regards of stadium was freaking freezing that i needed a sweater
Watching Tifo is just thoroughly satisfying - equally informative and enjoyable
Better question: How many people died to air-condition a World Cup?
Exactly.
Go on. Let us know.
How many Afghan children were bombed using your dirty tax payer money? Look in the mirror you little rat.
You know how you could keep the stadiums cool? Not having Quatar host a world cup.
Oh, get over yourself!
yeah their stadiums is better then europe but still buddy its time to stop crying
1. The stadium is oriented North South, not East West. That is more to do with glaring. 2. only 2 out of the 8 stadium have retractable roof. I worked on these stadium
Tbh those temperatures really aren't even that warm. Gurantee we get headline talking about how cold it is in stadiums. If anything could be bad if players trains hours during the day on open fields in direct sunlight then play in much cooler conditions. Like going into the shade when on holiday....it's suddenly freezing which ain't great for the body of an athlete.
This is looking like Fyre Fest all over again. Really hope I'm wrong

Very kind when you spend millions on research and then give it all away for free. Qatar might be the best country to ever host a WC but you’re just a bunch of haters. Half of the stadiums are going to be dismantled and then donated to poor countries. The amount of new technologies Qatar implemented in their stadiums is mind-blowing and no other country would have even come close to this. They are literally changing football forever and it’s for the good. They facilitated their whole country with public services for the people coming to support their teams to have the best time of their lives. Stop the hate. I’m pretty sure all this hate is racial and xenophobic just because they’re Arabs and are doing better job than anyone else did and will ever do.

Dry heat is not that bad, its the humidity makes it unbearable as you sweet doesn't evaporate and keeps you hotter
Yes dry heat is a lot better than very humid heat. It feels a lot hotter
Yes, exactly. England played in the Amazon (in Manaus). Reports then: "When England kick off against Italy for their first game of the World Cup the temperature could be as high as 30C (85F), with humidity hovering around 75%."
@DMorlio18 I guess it's personal preference at that point. I'd prefer 40C dry over 30C humid any day if I had to spend it outside.
@DMorlio18 it is the exact opposite lol heat feel alot worse when it is humid. When it's dry it is a lot better.
Fantastic job Tifo. Still mad that we don’t get a World Cup in the summer but I got to give it to them for not putting a Patent on the technology that could help cool down buildings and homes for the future.
Why not use Fan with moisture

can the airflow be manipulated to flow from a certain end of the pitch to the other end? could see a case where a team plays with a tailwind and gets a small" boost" in their speed of shots ,runs, passes etc and vice versa for the opposite end. In the second half, reverse the process and you given a big edge to certain teams. Something worth thinking about .
The nation doesn’t exactly like selling alcohol. So that’s a huge thing itself. FIFA loves to sell alcohol, but this is the Middle East where they don’t like alcohol
They have designated drinking zones and i believe youll be able to drink at the hotels and areas in the stadium

some arab nations are okay with drinking privately
Fluid dynamics, air filtering is what we need to stop viruses like covid. Let's hope focus on this will be one good thing to come out of this circus of a world cup.

Spolier alert: There's no need to 'air condition the World Cup' as average temperatures in Qatar in December are the same (or even below) the temperatures at previous summer World Cups like Brazil, USA, Korea, Germany...
Germany's summer temperatures rarely reach 30 degrees and it is hardly the issue. It breaks tradition, disrupts the European leagues, it's unappealing to European viewers.
@@Mchammershot The video is about air conditioning a World Cup, not the disruption to the football calendar. Oh, and it's currently 29 degrees in Munich (today, June 27th) and the same again on July 3rd. All the best.
Hope it's not too cold in the stadium for my Village People costume.
Haven't heard anyone say 'centigrade' in about 20 years
It’s a crime that this world cup is allowed to be held…
Totally agree
Australia should've been the hosts of the World Cup. It's their winter right now so the temperatures are much more comfortable this time of year. I won't be watching the farce in Qatar later on. Absolute joke.
Why you lying. You’re gonna be watching it lmao
@@anasuddin3406 nope
Its too cold rn in Australia to play soccer, Qatar will be the perfect temperature for us. Hopefully all the European babies get exhausted in the heat so we can beat them
Most of the matches will played at night because the Sun will go down at 5pm-ish (Qatar time)
Idk why I'm watching this, I won't even watch any of this World Cup. I suppose it makes the 2026 World Cup all the more special
People named John finding out that Qatar is a country and not just the old barça sponser
‘Qatar? Where’s that, Africa?’
sponsor
People named Abdul finding out the West doesn't legalize women being second class citizens.
Qatar's World Cup's hosting will in many ways help SubSaharan African, Tropical and MENA countries who will want to host the world cup in the future (10 to 30 years).
From showing the ability to tweak the football calendar as most of those countries are too rainy or too hot to host anything in "Summer" (there is a reason AFCON is hosted in January), to the cooling innovations in this video.
ya.. it was already hosted in sa 2010 so take that off the list
@@_ace786 To be fair, south African climate is more similar to the southern European climate than to other African climates.
it was hosted during SAs winter. the summer is 25 to 35 degrees Celsius. Southern hemispheres winters are in June July time
@@_ace786 I know, that's why I said it was more similar. My country's climate it's hot all year. Temperature always is the 30s
@anees ahmed SA is so far south that some of the things that apply to equatorial African countries and some MENA countries don’t exactly apply. Not sure SA also classifies itself as SSA.
SOME 20 YEARS AGO THIS WOULD HAVE SOUNDED INSANE, it's crazy. Imagine 20 years from now where the World would be technologically. Yeah, you can't imagine, we gonna be surprised for sure.
Tifo teaching us physics and engineering when we should be watching a worldcup is the coping mechanism I didn't know I needed :')
I'm sorry but this video seems to imply that Qatar's research allowed the invention of absorption chillers and displacement ventilation, which to my knowledge is completely untrue, I've seen both used on designs in the US for 10+ years. I assume there may be some application/process they improved that could have been patented, but this video was a very shallow overview.
This ain't an engineering channel my guy
The most underrated thing here is Qatar not choosing to keep their cooling solutions in the confines of copyright laws
I’m might be wrong, but as far as know, you cannot patent thermodynamics laws. Not much to patent there, just pure marketing.
Interest in International football is dying in the UK.. even England's player's couldn't be bothered turning up for their last game a couple of weeks ago 😕
Nonsense I can't wait for the world cup
That's because the Nations League is a pointless Mickey Mouse cup for traditional big nations.
@@Swedishfinnpolymath actually joking aside, the expansion of teams/ games and with the nonsense of playing UK mid season in A/C stadiums.. simply doesn't add up.. its all about money and greed..
@@rinkadink66 Yeah it's quite sad how far the game has gone in the last two decades in terms of commercialization.
I really wish that players would reevaluate what's important (their health) and group together and put a stop to this ever growing match expansion nonsense.
I'm glad I'm not emotionally invested anymore because at this rate I think that within a decade clubs will start to play league matches in places like Middle east an the US.
Or maybe they won't because of the Super League debacle a year ago. The NFL has already hosted competitive games in London and I'm sure that they would love to have more games in Europe.
O tempora o mores 😥.
That's what happens when you embrace a foreign ideology to browbeat your fans with.
I can't wait. I'm sure it will be great
