  • Every week, Eco India brings you stories that inspire to build a cleaner, greener and better tomorrow. Our top story this week looks at an elegant and energy-efficient cooling system that uses cylindrical terracotta cones, arranged in a beehive pattern, over which water is allowed to flow. Could this technology potentially replace electric refrigerant-based AC units?

    Team ANT STUDIO, a common knowledge in yoga is, if you blow air with open mouth on your palm, it will feel warm, but if you pucker you’re lips like blowing a candle and blow into your palm, the air will be cool. Using this knowledge I wonder if you could widen the pot on the end where hot air comes from, and narrow the other end to a smaller hole, it might change the dynamics even more. Agha Khan hospital in Karachi uses this concept of Jaalis made out of concrete, called Jeffries, the temperature is remarkably cool on the inside passages . Most Islamic architecture and ancient temples use this concept. Old house in the deserts use the same narrow in,ets for air to cool the air inside. You guys are amazing!

    Very interesting idea. There is another observation about natural cooling. These tubes seem to be the same diameter, end to end. But when air is compressed, it becomes cooler. A larger intake on the end from where the hot air originates and a narrower diameter on the other, cools air that blows through or is forced through it because the air is compressed. This is used in some areas of Africa by inserting bottles into the walls, the larger diameter facing the outside of the structure and the neck, facing the inside. Pretty cool 😊

    It is interesting that the designer says "we always look towards the WEST for good ideas to do things wisely." Or something like that he said. Personally, I always look at what the people from INDIA are doing if I want to get ideas that are the MOST INNOVATIVE and LEAST COSTLY. Here in the west, our goal is most often to make MONEY MONEY MONEY.... without much regard for cost efficiency. So... my point is.... be proud of what the India people are accomplishing.

    Evaporative Coolers have been around FOREVER. The US sold them as "Humidifiers" many ages ago. They work well... up until the Air becomes fully saturated with Moisture. At that point, they no longer can Cool... because the air wont accept any more moisture. The idea that you could just make a boatload of waterfalls to cool everyone down... also presents its own Eco issues... as that can lead to massive weather changes... in which the areas get so saturated with moisture, that it causes massive flooding in various other areas, when it rains all of that moisture back down to Earth.
    The best Eco solution, is not to scrap the AC units.. but instead, to increase the Insulation properties of every building... because most Heating and Cooling are LOST, due to Thermals Leaking. Thicker insulated walls + insulated ceilings. Much thicker Glass windows to prevent conductive losses (and making things much quieter to boot). As well as putting the masses of Apartments, and businesses, Under Ground, where the temps are Naturally much cooler, and much more Stable. (This could also solve issues with having to Plowing and shovel Snow). It would also prevent issues of degradation of cars Rusting, to the salted roads.
    This would also allow for larger scale farming, and various kinds of green parks, on the surface.

    I stopped using the cooling part of the air-con years ago, I open up the house during the summer and only run the fan now, since doing this the house has become cooler by just moving the air around but not cooling it. Now when walking past the outlet there is no heat coming from it.
    The Summer temps where I live can reach over 50°c during the hight of summer, I have also adopted the Spanish way of living by having a nap at the peek of the heat once past that point it starts cooling down enough that I can go back out side and do more Gardning or more work inside.
    I like the idea of the water over the tiles, this would work for my home by having one at the back of the house and one at the front, it will have the added benefit of the water being a natural sound barrier to road noise and just many from the next door neighbour who just can not talk softly when on the phone, I can hear her even when I’m in the back yard and the house is between us😳😳

    As an airconditioner installer, an air conditioner doesn't take the warm heat of the room and blow it outside. It recirculate the air through copper pipes that are filled with cold gasses making the air that goes through it a lot more colder. This cold gass gets could because of expanding. Once expanded it goes towards outside unit and gets compressed back into liquid state. The compression of this gas causes heat and that's the heat what the outside unit blows. So in other words when the gass gets expanded from liquid compressed state into gas form it gets cold. When compressed from gass form to liquid it gets hot. In Holland our AC's also heats the room in the winter by just reversing this process.

      It doesn't literally blow outside. But essentially the heat energy is absorbed by the refrigerant and then transferred out to the outside air via the evaporating coil in the ODU. That's what he meant . Essentially we are removing heat energy from indoors and giving it off to the outdoors.

    This works on the same principle as ollas, which are Peruvian/Inca clay pots used to cool the ambient air. Because they were sun dried, the clay contains many tiny pores. When water is put in the pots, it slowly oozes out of those pores and coats the outside of the pot in many tiny waterdrops, which then evaporize and take away the ambient hear. They are hung from ropes, usually from the rafters of overhanging roofs on porches. The ollas, the shadow of the porch and the breeze will cool the air down significantly.
    This clay pipe hive system is clever. Simple. Like ollas. I see a simple addition to this system that could markedly improve it's performance though: Now, it's just a bundle of straight, clay tubes. If you put a twist in them, turning them into a bundle of spiraling clay tubes, the hot air passing through them would come into contact with the walls of the clay tube much more often and for much longer. That would significantly increase the cooling effect of this system. Just that twist.

    right now if we move our electricity generation to renewal sources like solar, we can mitigate the carbon footprint of ACs and any other device which runs on electricity. But the solution proposed in this video (which is more or less the same as water cooler) if employed at a large scale would require an enormous amount of water, which i do not think will be feasible. Hence it does not seem like a good solution.

They used to work great during the hot, dry part of Delhi summers, but not at all once the monsoons arrived...

    I don't believe in Man Made Global Climate change, however I do believe in Micro Climate change though in cities etc. I was looking at all those tall buildings with narrow streets. This cooling system should be put at intervals in these passages to help cool the air coming out of the AC units as well as some shade tarps to help cool the buildings so less AC is needed. Also larger units on the roof tops with shade tarps over them may also help cool the building tops and make them require less AC. Geothermal is also an idea if a river is near by that could provide cool water to the heat exchanges. Also instead of having several units in the windows try using large units on the roof to cool several rooms at once. A double heat exchanger might work. One that uses the water and air to cool a coil with Glycol in it that is pumped into the buildings instead of the moist air, which causes mold. Anyways just some thoughts. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya
