Meer productie / hogere energie efficiency (diffuus, AR) Situatie nu: Isolatie door 1-3 schermen Æ in winter erg veel lichtverlies (25-35%) Grote sprongen te maken in energiegebruik (dubbel glas) Lichtverlies door condensatie kan verminderen Gewasreactie (koptemperatuur kan veranderen) is een ? Beschikbaarheid CO2 wordt punt van aandacht

Conclusions
Diffuse light is positive because… z z z z z z
Changed light penetration in crop Diffuse light is absorbed more by middle leaf layers of cucumber Higher photosynthesis in those leaf layers Higher yield Milder greenhouse climate on sunny days Lower head temperature during high irradiation
Potplants
1% light = 1% growth rule has to be re-defined Optimum diffusing properties have to be found

Measurements of daily PAR integral in- and outside experimental greenhouses with diffuse and clear covering Apr.-Sep. 2006 in NL
Conclusion
Transmission perpendicular (NEN 2675) not relevant! Measure Transmission hemispherical and Haze! Reference clear greenhouse glass: 82-83% = τhemispherical Measurement tolerances ~ 0.5%
Transmission hemispherical vs. Haze -5% less light
low transmission
Still tolerable?
high haze high transmission
What is better?

Conclusions
Roof materials with higher haze increase production (if light loss low!) Æ high light losses are negative in winter Chose right material for crop Measure transmission hemispherical & haze Compare material prizes Few standard materials available – a lot of prototypes – development going fast Already good materials available

Het mysterie diffuus glas
Diffuus glas …is alleen positief in zomer NEE …laat minder licht door NEE …zorgt ervoor dat ik meer moet stoken NEE …vervuilt sneller ???
