The details of the advanced cooling technology for the 2022 World Cup stadium

Jakarta –

Qatar known as a very hot country temperature. So, title World Cup 2022 held in the implementing country cooling technology sophisticated at the stadium. Like what?

The revolutionary system was first unveiled during the inauguration of Khalifa International Stadium in 2017 and has since been retrofitted at 6 other tournament venues, as well as other venues across the country.

In the future, this technology will allow sporting events to be held throughout the year, so that the stadium can still be used after the 2022 World Cup.

Hence, an energy-efficient cooling system was immediately developed by Qatar itself after it was confirmed as host of the World Cup. Saud Abdulaziz Abdul Ghani, an engineering professor at the University of Qatar, plays an important role in this technology.

“My doctoral studies focus on air conditioning in cars and we apply the same theory to World Cup stadiums, but obviously on a much larger scale,” said Dr. Saud as quoted detikINET from FIFA.com.

Cooling technology they have already been installed in seven of the eight stadiums in Qatar in 2022. The only one not used is Stadium 974, as it can be dismantled and equipped with natural ventilation. Each technology is implemented differently depending on stadium conditions.

How does it work? Using solar energy, the outside air is cooled and then distributed through devices in the stands and large pipes on the sides of the pitch.

‘We only cool the areas where people need it, like on the pitch or in the stands. Each stadium is cooled down to a comfortable temperature, around 20 degrees Celsius,’ explained Dr. Saud.

Well apparently, cooling technology This is not patented so it can be used in other countries. “This technology has the potential to be a game changer for countries with hot climates. That’s why I make sure anyone can use it,” said Dr. Saud. He also admitted that he is very proud that this Qatari technology can be imitated by other countries and companies.
