Abstract
The article discusses a modeling technique and a mathematical program to be used in designing refrigerating systems where effective radiation is employed. Various formulae for calculating effective radiation have been compared and the results are presented. A computer program has been developed to precalculate the flux of effective radiation according to the user’s parameters of air temperature, emitting surface temperature, atmospheric dew point temperature, degree of cloudiness, relative emissivity of the surface and geographic latitude of the area for which the measurements are being made.
Keywords: effective radiation, refrigerating systems, nocturnal radiative cooling, unconventional cooling techniques.
