Study of the Aerosol Indirect Effect by Large-Eddy Simulation of Marine Stratocumulus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A total of 98 three-dimensional large-eddy simulations (LESs) of marine stratocumulus clouds covering both nighttime and daytime conditions were performed to explore the response of cloud optical depth (τ) to various aerosol number concentrations (Na ...

Photonic structures in radiative cooling

open access: yesLight: Science & Applications, 2023
Radiative cooling is a passive cooling technology without any energy consumption, compared to conventional cooling technologies that require power sources and dump waste heat into the surroundings.

Highly spectrally selective dual-layer cellulose-based composite material for daytime radiative cooling

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2022
Passive radiative cooling is a key technology to solve the global warming and energy waste caused by refrigeration. However, because of the high price and complex manufacturing process, the application of daytime radiative cooling materials in the field ...

Simulations of Contrail Optical Properties and Radiative Forcing for Various Crystal Shapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this study is to investigate the sensitivity of radiative-forcing computations to various contrail crystal shape models. Contrail optical properties in the shortwave and longwave ranges are derived using a ray-tracing geometric method and ...

Generalized bioinspired approach to a daytime radiative cooling "skin"

open access: yes, 2020
Energy-saving cooling materials with strong operability are desirable towards sustainable thermal management. Inspired by the cooperative thermo-optical effect in fur of polar bear, we develop a flexible and reusable cooling skin via laminating a ...

Pollutant dispersion in a developing valley cold-air pool [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Pollutants are trapped and accumulate within cold-air pools, thereby affecting air quality. A numerical model is used to quantify the role of cold-air-pooling processes in the dispersion of air pollution in a developing cold-air pool within an alpine ...

Characterization of dust activity on Mars from MY27 to MY32 by PFS-MEX observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We present spatial and temporal distributions of dust on Mars from Ls = 331 in MY26 until Ls = 80 in MY33 retrieved from the measurements taken by the Planetary Fourier Spectrometer (PFS) aboard Mars Express.

Radiative cooling and cold storage for concentrated solar power plants

open access: yesEnergy Storage and Saving, 2022
Concentrated solar power (CSP) plants are generally located in solar-abundant yet hot and water-stressed locations. In such circumstances, efficient but water-intensive once-through wet cooling and water-free but inefficient air cooling are both ...

Research on the performance of radiative cooling and solar heating coupling module to direct control indoor temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The energy crisis and environmental pollution pose great challenges to human development. Traditional vapor-compression cooling consumes abundant energy and leads to a series of environmental problems.
