Lighting and insulation precautions for solar greenhouses

Lighting and insulation precautions for solar greenhouses

The front slope is covered with thermal insulation at night, and the east, west and north sides are single-slope plastic greenhouses with enclosure walls, which are collectively referred to as solar greenhouses. Its prototype is a single-slope glass greenhouse, and the light-transmitting covering material on the front slope is replaced by a plastic film, which is an early solar greenhouse. The characteristics of solar greenhouses are good heat preservation, low investment and energy saving, which are very suitable for the use of underdeveloped rural areas in my country.

solar greenhouse lighting

On the one hand, solar radiation is an important source of energy to maintain the temperature of solar greenhouses or maintain heat balance; on the other hand, solar radiation is a limited light source for crops to perform photosynthesis.

Solar Greenhouse Insulation

The thermal insulation of the solar greenhouse consists of two parts: the thermal insulation envelope and the movable thermal insulation quilt. Insulation on the front slope should be flexible material to be easily stowed after sunrise and lowered at sunset.
