Sell cooling pads for greenhouse and poultry shed

详情

Fan and pad systems consist of exhaust fans at one end of the greenhouse and a pump circulating water through and over a porous pad (Figure 2) installed at the opposite end of the greenhouse..



If all vents and doors are closed when the fans operate, air is pulled through the wetted pads and water evaporates. As each gallon of water is evaporated, 8,100 BTUs of heat energy are absorbed from the air by the water during the change from liquid to vapour. Removing energy from the air lowers the temperature of the air being introduced into the greenhouse. The air will be at its lowest temperature immediately after passing through the pads. As the air moves across the house to the fans, the air picks up heat from solar radiation, plants, and soil, and the temperature of the air gradually increases. The resulting temperature increase as air moves down the greenhouse produces a temperature gradient across the length of the greenhouse, with the pad side being coolest and the fan side warmest.
