Spectral Emissivity Profiles for Radiative Cooling
ACS Applied Optical Materials(2023)
摘要
Passive radiative cooling, an innovative approach for cooling buildings and devices, has attracted considerable attention in recent years. In particular, the spectral emissivity distribution of surfaces plays a crucial role for an object to radiate at wavelengths for which the atmosphere is transparent and solar irradiance is low. Here, we study the role of spectral emissivity distributions using different performance metrics: cooling power (CP) and equilibrium temperature (TEq). We investigated the roles of environmental factors, such as ambient temperature and level of thermal insulation from surroundings, on spectral emissivity distributions. Based on these emissivity distributions, we report the conditions at which the suitable profile for cooling power maximization and equilibrium temperature minimization changes. We discuss the realization of spectral emissivity distributions using various optical materials for cooling power maximization and equilibrium temperature minimization separately under different environmental conditions. The impacts of material selection on the realization of desired emissivity profiles and corresponding outcomes are analyzed. As progress in this emerging field gains traction, development of radiative cooling structures with suitable spectral emissivity profiles under different circumstances will become essential.
