But colder air is denser...
Now what you gotta do is compress the air, (this takes energy) then 
de-compress it rapidly. The faster you do it the colder the air results. 
Just like in a wind tunnel "compress;expand;accellerate".

PLEASE EXCUSE THE LAST ENTRY. VICTORIA FRONKENSTEIN'S OPINIONS ARE HERS 
ALONE AND NOT TO BE AFFILLIATED WITH THIS STAION...

THANK YOU...
