Thermal Performance of a Concrete Cool Roof under Different Climatic Conditions of Mexico
, 2014 A cool roof is an ordinary roof with a reflective coating on the exterior surface which has a high solar reflectance and high thermal emittance. These properties let the roof keep a lower temperature than a standard roof under the same conditions.
