Experi- ments were designed to evaluate two cooling methods (Watergy chimney method and pool method) in a closed greenhouse in Beijing during warm seasons. Prelimi- nary results showed that average temperature at daytime (from 8:00 to 18:00) at 100 cm above ground surface in the closed greenhouse could be reduced by 8 with the Watergy chimney method. Average relative humidity fluctuated between 45% and 75% during daytime at 100 cm above ground surface within the closed greenhouse. With the pool method, average temperature was about 10 ℃ lower than that of the control greenhouse without pool at 50 cm above the ground surface. The peak temperature at 50 cm height was about 32℃ between 11:30 and 15:00 and, close to outside temperature. Temperature in this system satisfied normal growth of most crops, but relative humidity at 50 cm height were above 90% at daytime.展开更多

However, the operating parameters shown in the technical documents are only for rated conditions in summer, not for any other conditions, especially in low air wet-bulb temperature areas such as those near 0℃. In addition, CWCTs often fail to achieve the designed cooling effect at low air wet-bulb temperatures. A experiment set of CWCT was built, and the performance of the CWCT at low air wet-bulb temperature near 0℃ was investigated. The impact of the operating parameters(air flow rate, cooling water flow rate, and spray water flow rate) on the heat and mass transfer performance of the CWCT was measured and analyzed. The results show the cooling performance of the CWCT at an air wet-bulb temperature 0℃, 2℃, and 4℃ is about 47%–63% of the rated operating condition;the optimal operating parameters of these conditions for the CWCT are just the same as those of the rated operating condition in summer. According to the experimental results, some operating advices are given.展开更多
