Abstract

A cooling unit for an armoured vehicle, the unit including: a. a housing adepted to pass cool air from inside the housing to an interior of the armoured vehicle; b. a compressor or pump located within the housing; and c. an energy transfer tube apparatus in which at least two rotating fluid flows can be established so as to transfer energy from one of the rotating fluid flows to another of the rotating fluid flows, the energy transfer tube apparatus being located within the housing and being configured to receive fluid directly or indirectly from the compressor or pump. Also provided are methods of cooling the interior of said vehicle.
