Experimental Investigation of the Energy Needs for a Conventionally and an Infrared-Heated Greenhouse
Infrared (IR) heating as alternative to forced air heating has been studied experimentally for 70 days in two identical, small-scale, experimental greenhouses. The two heating options were implemented with four IR electric lamps and an electric forced air heater correspondingly. The microclimate in...
