Global Radiative Sky Cooling Potential Adjusted for Population Density and Cooling Demand

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
Thanks to recent advances in nanophotonics and scalable manufacturing of metamaterials, radiative sky cooling has emerged as a “self-reliant” cooling technology with various potential applications.

Concentrated Radiative Cooling

open access: yes, 2020
A fundamental limit of current radiative cooling systems is that only the top surface facing deep-space can provide the radiative cooling effect, while the bottom surface cannot. Here, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a concept of "concentrated radiative cooling" by nesting a radiative cooling system in a mid-infrared reflective trough, so ...

Radiative cooling, what’s next?

open access: yesNext Energy, 2023
Radiative coatings make use of omnipresent surface thermal radiation for passive cooling of objects without consuming energy or emitting greenhouse gases, and are a promising energy-saving strategy at scale to address the climate change problem. In the last decade, thanks to advances in photonics and micro/nano-fabrication technologies, we have ...

Deployment Integration Strategy for Daytime Radiative Cooling Materials: A Comparative Numerical Analysis of Roof Cooling and Water-Cooling Panels [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Daytime radiative cooling has emerged as a promising solution for continuous passive cooling. While significant progress has been made in material developments, questions persist regarding the potential large-scale deployment of this technology.

Vapor condensation with daytime radiative cooling [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
Significance Traditionally, the cooling for passive vapor condensation is mainly provided by convection and conduction. However, these mechanisms do not work when the vapor temperature is near the ambient air temperature. At such temperatures, radiative condensation remains effective.

Influences of atmospheric water vapor on spectral effective emissivity of a single-layer radiative cooling coating

open access: yesAIMS Energy, 2021
Radiative cooling technology can emit infrared heat to the outer space through the "sky window" for cooling without consuming energy, which had drawn more and more attention.

Atmospheric teleconnection mechanisms of extratropical North Atlantic SST influence on Sahel rainfall [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Extratropical North Atlantic cooling has been tied to droughts over the Sahel in both paleoclimate observations and modeling studies. This study, which uses an atmospheric general circulation model (GCM) coupled to a slab ocean model that simulates this ...

Radiative cooling in numerical astrophysics: the need for adaptive mesh refinement

open access: yes, 2010
Energy loss through optically thin radiative cooling plays an important part in the evolution of astrophysical gas dynamics and should therefore be considered a necessary element in any numerical simulation. Although the addition of this physical process

A structural polymer for highly efficient all-day passive radiative cooling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
All-day passive radiative cooling has recently attracted tremendous interest by reflecting sunlight and radiating heat to the ultracold outer space. While some progress has been made, it still remains big challenge in fabricating highly efficient and low-

Metamaterial-Based Radiative Cooling: Towards Energy-Free All-Day Cooling

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
In the light of the ever increasing dangers of global warming, the efforts to reduce energy consumption by radiative cooling techniques have been designed, but are inefficient under strong sunlight during the daytime. With the advent of metamaterials and
