Abstract: Abstract Heatwaves are one of the most dangerous natural hazards causing more than 166,000 deaths from 1998–2017. Their frequency is increasing, and they are becoming more intense. Electric fans are an efficient, and sustainable solution… read more here.

Abstract: The effect of four cooling strategies on cooling performance of a hybrid personal cooling system (HPCS) incorporated with phase change materials (PCMs) and electric fans in a hot environment (i.e., Tair = 36 ± 0.5 °C, RH = 59 ± 5%) was investigated. Twelve… read more here.
