Book Synopsis The Year-Round Solar Greenhouse by : Lindsey Schiller
Download or read book The Year-Round Solar Greenhouse written by Lindsey Schiller and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2016-10-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Build your own passive solar greenhouse for year-round food production in any climate Fresh, local nutrient-dense fruits vegetables are hard to find in winter in cold climates. Growing warm-weather crops like tomatoes, bananas, avocados, and other perennials is nearly impossible using conventional structures. The solution for millions of backyard and small-scale commercial growers is self-heating solar greenhouses. The Year-round Solar Greenhouse is the one-stop guide to designing and building greenhouses that harness and store energy from the sun to create naturally heated, lush growing environments even in the depths of winter, covering principles of solar greenhouse design and siting, glazing material properties and selection, controlling heat loss, ventilation, and construction methods. Additionally, an in-depth section covers sustainable ways of heating the greenhouse without fossil fuels, including using thermal mass and storing heat underground with a ground to air heat exchanger. Variations include attached solar greenhouses, earth sheltered greenhouses, plus integrating hydroponics and aquaponics. More than a dozen case studies from across North America provide inspiration and demonstrate specific challenges and solutions for growing year-round in any climate. Grow your own food, anytime, anywhere using the power of the sun!

Book Synopsis Building a Solar-Heated Pit Greenhouse by : Greg Stone
Download or read book Building a Solar-Heated Pit Greenhouse written by Greg Stone and published by Storey Publishing. This book was released on 1997-01-11 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A solar-heated pit greenhouse combines the energy-conserving features of the traditional pit greenhouse with newer techniques and materials used in standard heated greenhouses. The result is a simple, inexpensive structure that blends into its environment and needs little or no heat from any source other than the sun. Greg Stone s simple, illustrated, step-by-step instructions show you exactly how to design, site, and build your own solar-heated pit greenhouse from start to finish."

Book Synopsis The Earth-sheltered Solar Greenhouse Book by : Mike Oehler
Download or read book The Earth-sheltered Solar Greenhouse Book written by Mike Oehler and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Earth-Sheltered Solar Greenhouse Book is the first to promote the benefits of both passive solar energy and earth sheltering in greenhouse design. This combination results in greenhouses which need no additional heating. The captured sun's energy and that which is stored in the earth is enough for successful year round harvest. It takes you step by step through the construction of an inexpensive greenhouse which may be built with either newly purchased or salvaged building materials for pennies on the dollar. It explains the author's unique Post/Shoring/Polyethylene construction methods and design techniques. The Earth-Sheltered Solar Greenhouse Book has 230 pages with nearly 200 illustrations, photos, diagrams, lists, charts and drawings. It contains all the information you need to free you from the pesticide, herbicide, fungicide, waxed, and E-coli laden, genetically modified and irradiated supermarket produce.
Book Synopsis Investigation of the Energetic Performance of an Attached Solar Greenhouse Through Monitoring and Simulation by : Osama Asa'd
Download or read book Investigation of the Energetic Performance of an Attached Solar Greenhouse Through Monitoring and Simulation written by Osama Asa'd and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Canada, energy costs represent a significant portion of the overall operating cost of greenhouses. This energy is mostly consumed in winter to satisfy the heating requirement of greenhouses. Therefore, it is essential to investigate energy efficient systems to reduce the heating requirements in greenhouses, and as a result, improve the overall performance. Solar greenhouses are designed to maximize the heat gain in order to reduce the heating loads in winter. This research work was conducted to investigate the energetic performance of an attached solar greenhouse connected to a rock-bed thermal storage and located in Joliette near Montreal through monitoring and simulation. A TRNSYS model was developed to analyze the energetic performance of the attached greenhouse and rock-bed thermal storage. The TRNSYS model was validated by comparing the measured greenhouse indoor temperatures and rock-bed outlet temperatures to the predicted ones for three periods. The validation results of the three periods showed a good agreement between the measured and predicted temperatures. The optimal design of a solar greenhouse is essential to have high performance in terms of productivity and energy costs. Therefore, a parametric study using the TRNSYS validated model was conducted to investigate the effects of the heating and cooling set point temperatures, rock-bed air flow rate, cover materials, mechanical outside air ventilation, and rock-bed thermal storage size in order to improve the overall design. The parametric study results showed that the rock-bed air flow rate and the U-value of the greenhouse cover material have a significant effect on the greenhouse indoor temperatures. While changing the cooling (rock-bed charging) set-point temperature from 12°C-22°C while keeping the heating (rock-bed discharging) set-point temperature fixed at 10°C did not have a significant effect on the greenhouse indoor temperatures. As the rock-bed size increased, the amount of heat discharged from the rock-bed thermal storage increased. As a result, the greenhouse indoor temperatures increased in winter nights. Moreover, in order to avoid the undesirable high indoor temperatures especially in summer, the installation of the mechanical outside air ventilation is necessary.
