DOHA: Qatar has become almost a byword for scorching heat, but some fans will still take a sweater to World Cup stadiums because of state-of-the-art air conditioning that its mastermind says will become the norm for mega sports events.
Stadium cooling is nothing new. The Superdome, home of the New Orleans Saints American football team, has 9,000 tonnes of air conditioning equipment. Inside the bubble, players and fans will be kept at 21 degrees Celsius by jets blasting air at the pitchside and under spectators' seats. A digital thermometer measures the temperature at the al-Janoub Stadium on Apr 20, 2022 in Doha, which will host matches of the FIFA football World Cup 2022.
"We have the best thermal insulation on our machines, the best sensory systems around the stadium," said Saud.Each human generates the heat of two laptops and gives off 70g of sweat per hour, according to Saud.
