"Review of daytime radiative cooling technologies and control methods" by Weiguang Su, Pei Cai et al.
Cooling demand in buildings accounts for a significant portion of global energy consumption and is estimated to increase tenfold by 2050. Daytime radiative cooling shows great potential for reducing surface temperatures and cooling energy consumption of buildings by dissipating heat into cosmic space without consuming any energy. However, further commercial application of radiative cooling technologies requires improvements in their cooling efficiency, reduction of manufacturing costs, and optimisation of their seasonal suitability. Meanwhile, typical daytime radiative coolers with constant so...
