Feb 26, 2015 at 14:03 | comment | added | Brionius | I've seen a remarkable number of different explanations of this, from the Joule-Thompson effect, to the effect of entraining more outside air when you purse your lips and blow, to adiabatic expansion, to evaporative effects due to increased airspeed, or simply increased convection. I'm not entirely convinced by any of them, and I'm very curious to see the answers here. | |
