How an IGLOO keeps You Warm ?

Описание: If you ever find yourself stranded in the snowy Arctic (or bored in Minecraft), you’re gonna need to know how to build an igloo. But how can building a house made of ice keep you warm? The science behind building an igloo is the same reason that otters and reindeer don't freeze to death!

An igloo is a shelter built entirely from snow that can survive the harshest Arctic winters. In this video, we explain how an igloo keeps you warm using thermodynamics and Inuit engineering principles.

How Igloos Work: The Science of Keeping Warm in the Arctic | Simple Things Surprising Histories

This documentary style episode from Simple Things Surprising Histories covers the ingenious science behind Inuit snow houses, from the physics of insulation to the architectural design that traps body heat.

Topics covered in this video:
• The paradox of using frozen snow to stay warm
• Difference between solid ice and compressed snow insulation
• How trapped air pockets in snow prevent heat loss
• The physics of body heat and radiant energy
• The role of the Qulliq (oil lamp) in heating
• Why the entrance is dug lower than the floor (cold sink)
• How sleeping platforms utilize rising warm air
• How igloo walls melt and refreeze to become windproof

This video is designed for students, educators, and general audiences who want a clear explanation of how igloos function without unnecessary complexity. All explanations are factual, educational, and suitable for learning purposes.
