If its a finished wall you will need to find the studs, then cut a whole the size of your AC unit. build a 2 x4 frame attatching to the studs with screws. Then just slide your unit into opening and fasten with screws. Buy some moulding and cut to "picture frame" around your unit to finish.

Is it possible to mount one of the many inexpensive window air conditioners in a knee wall - with some kind of ducted intake out towards a roof mounted intake?

Hi: Yes it is, but possible don't make it smart. There got to be something you can rustle up better than this cuz I can give you about a gazzillion reasons why you wouldn't wanna do it. Sounds like you are a do it yourselfer and practical sort who don't cotton to the area repair folks much. ( probably with good reason ) A electric packaged unit sounds like your thing with cooling only if that all you want. You don't have to weld in pipes and such cuz it comes like one huge window unit ( Only about a gazillion times more efficient ) and you just pipe her in with good high quality and inexpensive flex duct or metal duct if you prefer and insulate it. If price has scared you off before then go back and look again cuz they are not gonna cost you what those window units will in total. One good place to start your search would be on your computer at a Goodman Warehouse Outlet Site that will sell direct to you. They can send you brochures if you like. You do have to have a license to buy a split system however. But these are much the same as a window unit and come already charged so you don't fool with that . jimiwane

Why supercritical boiler are drumless boilers?

Answer to this question is very simple as the meaning of pressure is force on unit area, so more units of area or simply more area of a vessel containing a pressurized fluid in it exerting force on its walls, means, this vessel is more likely to burst than a vessel which has less diameter thus having less surface area for pressure to create damaging affect for a particular wall thickness. i don't think so Friends Cause .drum wall thickness is also sufficient or more as in comparison to the water walls .thickness main reason behind that in sub-critical boiler we have water and steam mix..inside the drum and we r separating vapour from water in that so for separation we using the boiler drum ..but in super-critical unit ..at critical pressure water is directly converted in to steam so there is no need to using of boiler drum to separate the mixture .and not need to recirculate the water into the wall circuit's also its known as once-through boiler
