History of Air conditioning |

Links on this page refer the user back to the wikipaedia.org site. An earlier form of air conditioning was invented in Persia (Iran) thousands of years ago in the form of wind shafts on the roof, which caught the wind and passed it through water and blew the cooled air into the building. The 19th century British scientist and inventor, Michael Faraday discovered that compressing and liquefying a certain gas could chill air when the liquified ammonia was allowed to evaporate. His idea remained largely theoretical. In 1842, Florida physician Dr. John Gorrie used compressor technology to create ice, which he would use to cool air blown over malaria and yellow fever patients. He eventually had a vision of using his ice-making machine to regulate environment in buildings. He even envisioned centralized air conditioning that could cool entire cities. Gorrie was granted a patent in 1851 (Patent #8080, USPTO) for his ice-making machine. The technology was attacked by Northern businessmen with the help of religious leaders they got to call the technology blasphemous, in order to protect its business of exporting natural ice to Southern states. When both his partner and he died in 1855, the idea of air conditioning died with him for the time being.

A court in Germany today banned Google from using the name "Gmail"
for its popular webmail service following a trademark suit filed by the
founder of G-Mail.
Daniel Giersch (33), started using the name G-Mail in 2000, four years before Google released "Gmail".
"Google infringed the young businessman's trademark that had been
previously been registered," said the Hanseatic Higher Regional Court
in its judgement.
"As far as the Hanseatic Higher Court is concerned, the legal
situation is unambiguous to the extent that it has not allowed an
appeal to the Federal Court of Justice," said Giersch's lawyer
Sebastian Eble, from the office of Preu Bohling & Associates.
The lawyer claimed that it was It is a legendary victory, because
for many Daniels fighting "Googliaths," confidence and financial means
run out in the long course of battle.
The battle for the trademark has dragged on for three years and has been fought in a number of State jurisdictions.
Google has filed lawsuits against Giersch in Spain, Portugal and Switzerland.
"Google has announced, at least in writing, to 'fight' my client
abroad for as long as it takes before he drops the legal claims lodged
in Germany," Eble confirmed.

LG unveils energy-efficient air conditioners |
|
Written by Administrator
|

Monday, 02 April 2007 |
|
Johannesburg, South Africa, 2 April 2007 - LG Electronics (LGE), the world?s number one air conditioner retailer for seven consecutive years, is set to further consolidate its leading position in the international air-conditioning market with the launch of its latest energy-efficient series. According to the new development, LGE will upgrade its award-winning and innovative Artcool air conditioner to include Inverter technology, a groundbreaking concept that is more energy-efficient and will maintain a more stable room temperature. The Inverter technology has proved to increase functionality as well as performance in air conditioners. LG?s Inverter technology dynamically controls compressor speed, which means cooling and heating can be adjusted much quicker to provide more stable temperature control. Moreover, the 2007 Artcool Inverter can easily maintain desired temperatures, thus reducing electricity costs by about 44 per cent over conventional models while making less noise. The LG Artcool Inverter cools 50 per cent faster than conventional air conditioners and can adjust its motor speed to keep a rooms temperature more stable. The Artcool has already swept the world?s premium air conditioner market with the simple yet clever concept of having a wall-mounted air conditioner double as a picture frame by using an easily replaceable front panel. This was one of the first steps in the industry toward ?melting? ? appliances that, like furniture, blend and work with household d?cor to match a theme. ?This upgrade is part of our continuing commitment to enhance the lifestyle quality of our customers. Inverter technology will make people more comfortable while, at the same time, lowering their electric bills. LG?s innovative Artcool inverter air conditioner ensures that everyone can enjoy a more pleasant climate at home, both temperature-wise and aesthetically,? said Mr. Ken Jeong, Aircon product manager of LG Electronics South Africa. The Artcool air conditioners also have replaceable front panels, which provide an aesthetic value to the product, over and above the technologically advanced features. The panels can be customised to portray family photographs, scenic views or any image of the consumer?s choice. Its replaceable front panel and Inverter technology are not the only advantages that LG?s Artcool Inverter has over conventional models. LG has also added a three-dimensional airflow system, which provides steadier temperature control throughout the room. Additionally, Artcool Inverter?s ultra-thin body allows it to fit more seamlessly into household interiors. This new development is expected to significantly increase LGE?s market share in the world air conditioning business. According to a Japanese market research company, Fuji-Keizai Co. Ltd., 62.97 million air conditioning units were sold worldwide in 2006, with LG responsible for 19.5 per cent or 12.28 million units. ?LG?s air-conditioning business has been performing consistently well world wide, and this latest product will add significantly to consumer choice. The quality and innovative technology of the Artcool air conditioners are what makes it so unique, Mr. Jeong added.?
