A glass greenhouse is a marvel of modern agricultural architecture, primarily serving the purpose of plant cultivation. Its design harnesses the exceptional light transmission capabilities of glass, creating optimal lighting conditions that significantly boost plant growth. With glass offering a high transmittance rate - typically over 85%-90% - the greenhouse ensures that a majority of the sun's visible light penetrates through, essential for thorough photosynthesis. Furthermore, it adeptly maintains a conducive indoor temperature, crafting a microclimate that operates independently from external environmental factors. During colder seasons, the glass greenhouse plays a critical role in minimizing heat loss and acts as an insulator. Conversely, in hotter seasons, internal temperatures are meticulously regulated through state-of-the-art ventilation, shading, and supplementary systems. These features collectively work to prevent heat stress and safeguard plant health, thereby fostering an environment where plants can thrive all year round.
A glass greenhouse is a building facility with a specific frame structure. Frames are usually made of metal (such as steel), including columns, beams, trusses and other parts, which are combined to form a solid spatial framework to provide support for the installation of glass. The design of the frame should take into account the weight of the bearing glass and the pressure of resisting natural external forces such as snow and snow to ensure the safety and stability of the greenhouse. |
1. Glass greenhouse is mainly used for plant cultivation. It uses the good light transmission of glass to create suitable lighting conditions for plant growth. The high transmittance of glass (generally more than 85%-90%) can make most of the visible light in the sun pass through, ensuring that plants can fully carry out photosynthesis. At the same time, it can effectively maintain the indoor temperature and form a microclimate that is relatively independent of the external natural environment. In the cold season, the glass greenhouse can reduce the loss of indoor heat and play a role in insulation; In the hot season, the temperature is adjusted through supporting ventilation, shading and other facilities to avoid excessive temperature damage to plants.
2. In addition to plant cultivation, glass greenhouses can also be used for agricultural production activities such as flower planting and vegetable seedling cultivation, and in some cases, it is also used to display rare plants and hold horticultural exhibitions, such as tropical plants in some botanical gardens, flower exhibition greenhouses, etc., to provide people with places of appreciation and popular science education. |
A glasshouse is a semi-permanent or permanent building. Its construction needs to follow certain building codes and standards, and there are corresponding requirements in site selection, infrastructure construction, drainage, etc. Its appearance is usually more structured to adapt to the installation of glass and the use of internal space. And the scale of the glass greenhouse can be flexible according to actual needs, from small single-house greenhouse for home gardening, to large multi-house greenhouse for agricultural industrialization. |
Ventilation system
1. Natural ventilation system: This system ingeniously utilizes side and top windows to create a natural airflow. Strategically placed side windows on the greenhouse walls can be operated both manually and electrically, while the top window, often fitted with mechanisms like rack and pinion, facilitates effective air exchange. As indoor temperatures rise, warm air naturally ascends and escapes through the top windows. Simultaneously, cooler air from outside flows through the side windows, fostering a refreshing natural ventilation that expertly balances indoor temperature and humidity levels for optimal plant growth.
2. Forced ventilation system: A powerhouse of efficiency, this system boasts strategically installed exhaust fans at one or both ends of the greenhouse. Particularly useful when natural ventilation falls short, such as during sweltering summer days, these fans actively expel hot indoor air. In their wake, they draw in fresh, cool air from outside, achieving swift temperature reduction and enhancing ventilation, thereby providing a comfortable environment for your plants to flourish.
Sunshade system
1. External sunshade system: Taking climate control to the next level, this system features a sunshade net positioned on the greenhouse's outer top. With seamless control, either manually or via electric automation, it adapts to light intensity and indoor climate. By effectively blocking excessive sunlight, it minimizes light intensity and heat infiltration, thereby preventing temperature spikes during scorching summer days and shielding your plants from potential sunburn.
2. Internal sunshade system: Ingeniously located inside the greenhouse, this system offers dual benefits: cooling during the day and thermal insulation at night. By reflecting a portion of sunlight, it reduces heat absorption, and fine-tunes light distribution within the greenhouse. This thoughtful approach ensures a balanced environment, optimizing plant growth and protecting delicate plants from the harshness of direct sunlight.
Irrigation system
1. Drip irrigation system: A marvel in precision, this trusted irrigation method delivers water directly to the plant roots via a network of pipes and drip heads. It minimizes evaporation and waste while allowing for precise water and nutrient delivery, making it ideal for resource-conscious growers. By dissolving fertilizers in water, it ensures nutrients reach the roots efficiently, fostering healthy and robust plant growth.
2. Micro-sprinkler irrigation system: With the ability to disperse water in fine droplets from overhead or elevated sprinkler heads, this method enhances air humidity - essential for plants needing higher moisture levels. Covering a broad area, it simultaneously waters multiple plants, making it an excellent choice for larger greenhouses and diverse plant varieties, ensuring each receives the hydration it needs to thrive.
Heating system
1. Hot water heating system: Utilizing advanced boiler technology, this system heats water, which is then circulated through pipes strategically placed within the greenhouse. It evenly disperses warmth, offering controlled temperatures to optimize indoor conditions. Moreover, the versatility of waste heat for operations like hot water irrigation exemplifies eco-friendly efficiency, enhancing sustainability in your greenhouse endeavors.
2. Hot air heating system: Rapid and adaptable, this system employs hot air fans to quickly infuse warmth into the greenhouse. Its design allows for the flexible adjustment of air outlets' position and angle, ensuring even heat distribution. This system empowers growers with the capability to customize the climate as needed, promoting a thriving environment for a variety of plant species.
