A new method of cooling the outside air in ventilation systems of poultry houses is proposed, based on the use of water from underground wells and heat exchangers of recuperators for cooling the supply air.
Numerical modeling of aerodynamics and heat transfer processes in poultry houses at tunnel ventilation system was performed. As a result of numerous calculations the distribution of temperatures, velocities and pressures in the air environment of a poultry house has been obtained. The use of heat exchangers for cooling the supply air allows to maintain its temperature at the level of +20-25 ℃ and to reduce the indicators of moisture content in poultry houses, which are high when using cassette methods or water spraying with nozzles for cooling the supply air.
As a result of the numerous studies conducted, it is recommended to increase the air flow rate by including a third exhaust fan located on the top line of the end rear wall. This will allow for a more uniform temperature distribution in the house.

The development of temperature control system of high-voltage batteries is an actual and important task in the development of modern electric and hybrid vehicles. There are a large number of designs and types of temperature control systems. In this article, we propose to consider a temperature control system based on a liquid cooling system and designed for both cooling and heating the battery in a wide range of ambient temperatures. In the development process of temperature control system for high-voltage batteries were carried calculations, 3D modelling of the design and tests.

Internal combustion (IC) engines are main source of power used in the automotive industry. These engines have undergone many up gradation for decades, with an initial goal of increase in power of the unit. Presently, as a result of tightening environmental regulations, research is focused on reducing harmful gases emissions along with increase of the engines efficiency.
