Windscreens in radiant cooling

Journal Article · · Passive Sol. J.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6802699
The effect of transparent polyethylene windscreens on radiant cooling systems is discussed. The effectiveness of single- versus double-covered radiators as well as the thickness and color of the polyethylene are also examined. Environmental considerations such as cloudiness and dew formation are analyzed with respect to windscreen performance.
