1. A portable internal combustion engine system, comprising:
an internal combustion engine having a first output shaft, wherein the internal combustion engine rotates the first output shaft;
a compressor rotatably engaged with the first output shaft via a belt, the first output shaft is configured to provide energy thereto;
a fan coupled to the internal combustion engine and configured to pull air into a housing, the housing forming an internal chamber;
an evaporative coil in gaseous communication with the housing and configured to receive air from the fan that passes through the internal chamber;
a condenser coil in gaseous communication with the housing and configured to receive air from the fan that passes through the internal chamber; and
a control system configured to operate the compressor, the internal combustion engine, and the fan to expel cool air;
wherein air enters the internal chamber via an air inlet and exits the housing via both the condenser coil and the evaporator.
