Abstract

The solar heating and nocturnal radiant cooling techniques are combined aiming at a novel solar heating and cooling panel (termed as SHCP) to be easily assembled as construction components for building roofing or envelope and also compatible with surroundings for its versatile coating colors, which can remove the double-skin mode from conventional solar equipment. SHCP has two functions for heating and cooling collecting. In this paper, the heating and cooling performances were analyzed in detail based on a small scale experimental system and effects of air gap and coatings were investigated. The results show that in sunny day of extreme cold January in Tianjin, China, the daily average heat-collecting efficiency is 39% with the maximum of 65%, while in sunny night during hot seasons the average cooling capacity can reach 87 W/m2. When two different coatings were sprayed on SHCP without air gap, its heating and cooling performances were all analyzed, the daily average heat-collecting efficiency was 39% and 27% with the maximum points of 65% and 49%, respectively, and the cooling capacity was almost the same of 30 W/m2 in January.
