How ANCIENT PERSIANS Kept ICE Frozen in 50°C Heat With NO Electricity
Video Link: https://youtu.be/6BOpD_uo8Sg
More than 2,000 years ago, Persian engineers developed ingenious cooling systems using Yakhchals, Badgirs, underground chambers, airflow, shade, and radiative cooling.
In this documentary, discover how ancient Persian ice houses could produce and preserve ice in extreme desert heat without electricity, and how wind, geometry, evaporation, and thermal mass made these systems possible.
