| Abstract |
The purpose of this experiment is to study the radiant cooling effects by a plate directly viewing the nighttime sky. The measurements are performed on a rooftop of the Engineering building at the Dongguk University in Seoul during the month of August in 2004. The radiant cooling effects are compared using three different types of plate surfaces, namely, galvanized iron, black painted, and aluminum film coated galvanized iron plate. Among these plates, the black painted surface showed the lowest temperature that is lower than the ambient temperature. The maximum radiant cooling temperature difference, which is ambient temperature minus plate temperature, observed is about 5K. |
