just love it when someone watches a show & has an idea...B)

Actually I didn't watch a show, it just came as an idea that if molecules are excited (thinking water here for example) and we can slow them down to make ice if we could do something to air without having to pipe it all over the place it should cool and would then naturally just fall...

Thank you all for your responses, I'm going to check the links and do more research, I'm 99+% certain if it could be done it would have been done.

I live in a 4 story townhome, and the air in the bottom level is quite a bit cooler than the master bedroom, we use a portable AC in the summer, but if I could pipe it up could probably go a couple months without AC... but then the piping would be not allowed by my wife :D for good reasons.

So I'm off to start trying to learn
P.S. I've had sleep apnea since forever so my brain works, but not the memory portion I can't learn advanced math cuz I keep forgetting the beginning. It sux, cuz I would have loved to be a scientist.

well, somebody did it already with a pool...check it here: https://www.thebuehls.com/pool_cooling/
but it just costs ridiculous amount of money...so not worth it at all! wink

also, if you want to keep bedroom cold (& wife closer that way biggrin

), you can always use thermostats of your bedroom...& close down the heating in upper level, 'cause a warm will always go up! wink

just keep asking...but some ideas just don't have enough "temp. difference" to make a viable source for cooling by passing air...most I got is about around 0,3m/s from temp difference of 20°C! wink

EDIT:
there's also a mineral oil cooling design: https://www.pugetsystems.com/submerged.php
