研究目的
The purpose of this study was to design and evaluate a greenhouse climate model which includes a detailed description of assimilation lights (HPS and LEDs). The ability of the model to accurately predict the heat requirements of illuminated greenhouses was tested by comparing model predictions with data collected from greenhouse compartments with HPS and LED lighting.
研究成果
The GreenLight model closely predicted the heating needs for greenhouse compartments equipped with LEDs and HPS top-lights. The error in model predictions is considerably smaller than the measured difference in heating requirements between the two lighting systems, demonstrating that the model captures and expresses the differences in heating between the HPS and LED compartment. With regards to the dynamics of the indoor climate predictions, the RMSE of air temperature was around 2 °C, and the RMSE of relative humidity was 5.5e8.5% of saturation.
研究不足
The model does not yet sufficiently describe the influence of lamp type on crop transpiration. For instance, GreenLight does not take into account the influence of light spectrum on stomatal aperture. The model also does not distinguish between the various levels inside the crop canopy.
