Microclimate of a pepper crop under screenhouse conditions
(2012)
In the present study, the influence of three different shading nets with different colour, shading intensity and porosity on the screenhouse and crop microclimate was experimentally investigated. The experiments were carried ...
Differences in required structural efficiency of standard commercial steel greenhouses among EU countries: A hellenic experience
(2012)
Since the climate and seismic conditions vary significantly among European countries (and sometimes even in different areas of the same country) the European Standard for the design and construction of greenhouses for ...
Effect of Irrigation Scheduling on Gerbera Flower Yield and Quality
(2010)
Better understanding of the effects of irrigation frequency and dose on flower production of gerbera plants (Gerbera jamesonii) can lead to optimal water management and crop yield. Measurements of greenhouse microclimate ...
Computational fluid dynamics applications to improve crop production systems
(2013)
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD), numerical analysis and simulation tools of fluid flow processes have emerged from the development stage and become nowadays a robust design tool. It is widely used to study various ...
Experimental results and spatial simulation of climate in a greenhouse with insect screens
(2011)
Aim of the present paper was to present, analyze and compare detailed experimental data and CFD simulation results in a greenhouse equipped with insect screens. The studied greenhouse was a round arch type with vertical ...
Solar radiation distribution in screenhouses: A CFD approach
(2012)
In this paper the effect of solar radiation distribution in a typical screenhouse was numerically investigated, taking into account the thickness and aerodynamic properties of the screen and its spectral, optical and thermal ...
Pepper crop production under shading and insect proof screenhouses
(2014)
Aim of this study was to experimentally investigate the effect of three different shading and insect proof nets on pepper crop development and production. Three screenhouses were used; two of them were covered by a 50 mesh ...
Characterization and analysis of the effects of greenhouse climate control equipment on greenhouse microclimate and crop response
(2011)
An overview of the recent scientific and technical advances on issues concerning the greenhouse microclimate, control and management in Mediterranean regions is presented and discussed. Special emphasis is given on the ...
Use of a decision support system for management of the drainage solution in semi-closed hydroponic systems under different drainage fractions
(2014)
Soilless cultivation, especially in closed-loop hydroponic systems offers a great option for water saving in greenhouses. Capture and recycling of the excess irrigation water that drains out of the root zone is possible ...
