| Abstract:
A comparative study of the effect of daily and monthly variations on greenhouse solar radiation transmission during the year was carried out. Four types of greenhouses with different orientations and different covering materials were used: Glasshouse, Concave greenhouse, Round arched and Round arched with vertical sides greenhouse. The glasshouse outperformed the others, having the highest and most consistent light transmission throughout the experiment. | |
