Effects of Cooling Systems on Greenhouse Microclimate and Cucumber Growth under Mediterranean Climatic Conditions

open access: yesAgronomy, 2019
Two experiments were conducted in different cropping seasons under Mediterranean climatic conditions to investigate the impact of two cooling systems (fan-pad evaporative as opposed to fan ventilation) on greenhouse microclimate and soilless cucumber ...

The Experimental Investigation on the Transpiration Cooling

open access: yesBulletin of JSME, 1965
In this paper, the effectiveness and the coefficient of heat transfer with the transpiration of distilled water and air across the porous plate are discussed. The conditions selected for the experiments were as follows : Velocity of bulk flow is 5∼35 m/sec Temperature of bulk flow is 100∼600°C Mass flow ratio is 0.05∼10% From this investigation the ...

A numerical analysis of transpiration cooling as an air cooling mechanism

open access: yesHeat and Mass Transfer, 2018
The present study is focused on investigation of heat transfer from a porous plate by cooling of air with transpiration cooling. Effects of Reynolds number of hot gas stream, inlet temperature of air and mass flow rate of water on local wall temperature and cooling effectiveness of porous flat plate and efficiency of the system inside a rectangular ...

Transpirational Cooling of Greenhouse Crops [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Background Transplanting vegetable seedlings to final spacing in the greenhouse is common practice. At the time of transplanting, the transpiring leaf area is a small fraction of the ground area and its cooling effect is rather limited. A preliminary modeling study suggested that if water supply from root to canopy is not limiting, a sparse crop could ...

Effect of parameters on thermal stress in transpiration cooling of leading-edge with layered gradient

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials
Transpiration cooling is an efficient thermal protection technique for the leading-edge of hypersonic aircraft. However, the local overheating of the transpiration cooling structure is prone to the defect of heat transfer deterioration, which seriously ...

Dynamic data driven adaptive control of an active-passive combined thermal protection system

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering
Thermal protection systems (TPSs) are critical for hypersonic flight safety. Conventional passive TPSs suffer from limited adaptability to thermal overload and increased structural weight under high heat-flux conditions, whereas active TPSs often exhibit
