Effects of Radiative Cooling Coatings on Thermal Environment and Energy Consumption of Residential Containers
In recent years,containers have been widely used in the construction field with their advantages of strong mobility,convenient transportation,fast modular construction and low cost,while most containers have poor thermal performance of their enclosures due to their simple structure.In this paper,radiative cooling coatings are applied to small residential containers,and thermal performance experiments are carried out.The results show that radiative cooling coatings can reduce roof temperature up to 6.0℃in summer,and regulate indoor thermal environment in summer.At the same time,in order to explore the applicability of radiative cooling coatings in different thermal zones,typical cities were selected to carry out simulation of container load characteristics,and it was found that radiative cooling coatings were more suitable for hot summer and warm winter areas and hot summer and cold winter areas where refrigeration energy consumption was the main focus,with an annual energy saving of 9.69kWh/m2 and 1.44kWh/m2,respectively.
