_A wind scoop is a specialized device designed to channel air into an enclosed space on a ship. This is achieved by the use of an efficient air intake system and a well-designed compartment. For instance, during a sailing voyage, a wind scoop can be used to draw cool air into the ship’s hold, thereby reducing the temperature inside the ship and making the living conditions more comfortable for the crew._
