Effectiveness of horizontal air flow fans supporting natural ventilation in a Mediterranean multi-span greenhouse
Natural ventilation is the most important method of climate control in Mediterranean greenhouses. In this study, the microclimate and air flow inside a Mediterranean greenhouse were evaluated by means of sonic anemometry. Experiments were carried out in conditions of moderate wind (≈ 4.0 m s-1), and...
