Subject Description

The objective of this subject is to extend the participant's ability to:

  • understand psychrometric processes;

  • understand the processes required to modify horticultural environments;

  • describe instrumentation appropriate to measure and monitor horticultural environments;

  • calculate heating and cooling loads; and

  • appreciate the role of the energy balance technique in analysing horticultural environments.

The content includes atmospheric properties, psychrometric properties, environmental modification techniques, measurement of environment, instrumentation, heat transfer, thermal properties of horticultural materials, heating and cooling loads, solar radiation, andenergy balance.
