Badgery: as fought with hellish heat in the ancient world
While we all toil from the heat and live only at the expense of air conditioning or fans for a couple of thousand years, there is a device that is so efficient that it makes life tolerable even in the desert, and cools the water almost to the freezing point.
Badgery is Persian scoops that have made a home in the desert in a cool home. Besides, they are not without exotic aesthetics and rustic elegance.
No one knows exactly, when there badgery, but in Iran they are building is clearly more than two thousand years. Similar constructions were the ancient Egyptians and was called "malkav".
Badgery look like solid tubes, resembling a giant fireplace. They permeate the whole building from the basement, through the living room and lifted up high over the house.
Badgery work by the same effect that fireplaces only system is generally more complex and allows for different options.
It is called "scoops". The meaning badgerow to catch the slightest wind with the surface and due to the difference of pressure to guide it down, through the entire thickness of the building.
At the same time, badgery is not just a hood. Due to the size and location in the heart of the building, they constantly cool the surface. The heat from the walls is transmitted rushing wind, and flows out.
These devices — both the ventilation and what sort of radiators for the whole building. They are surprisingly effective in desert regions of Iran they are building a still — air conditioners here simply can not cope.
In addition to ridding homes from the hellish heat, badgery used for cooling Kanatov, that is, underground channels and storage of water.
Efficiency in this case was so great that the water in storage was cooled almost to the freezing temperature — it was cold in the heart of the desert.
Badgery — a legacy of the old Persia, from the time when the state religion was not Islam, and Zoroastrianism. It is not surprising that most of these structures are preserved in Yazd — the Zoroastrian one of the few cities of the modern Iran.
The scoops can be very different and every architect tried to give them a unique look. Often, their shape looks very strange and pretentious.published
