Radiative cooling irreversibly removes heat to outer space, so from the point of view of the Earth, it’s a net cooling effect. Radiative cooling routes thermal radiation from the surface of the ...

Since conduction and convection don’t work in space, radiative cooling is the only way to manage heat. Camouflage materials also need to be lightweight and durable to withstand space conditions.

A team of UCLA engineers and researchers has developed a new technique to make it feel up to 10 degrees Fahrenheit cooler ...

Field trials on campus and at the San Fernando Swap Meet showed the experimental “tent” reduced mean radiant temperature to about 78°F, which is more than 10°F below what pe ...

Energy-efficient ways of cooling buildings and vehicles will be required in a changing climate. Researchers have now shown that electrical tuning of passive radiative cooling can be used to ...

In a phenomenon known as "radiative cooling," space effectively acts as a heat sink for the buildings; they take advantage of the new cooling glass design along with the so-called atmospheric ...

Radiative cooling, which happens when materials beam infrared heat rays at wavelengths that don’t get absorbed in the atmosphere and instead go straight into space, offers a way to bring ...

UT researchers helped develop new materials that emit heat more effectively and could save thousands of kilowatts of electricity per year, according to a news release from the Cockrell School of ...

A zero-carbon-emission cooling technology that uses no electricity and instead emits heat directly into space would be a game-changer for tackling climate change. However, poor standardization and a ...

Generally speaking, conventional heat dissipation uses more energy. Since it is the only technique that can send thermal radiation into space, radiant cooling has garnered much interest. This cools ...
