The south wall of the house might be built as a Trombe wall — possibly with movable insulation to reduce
night heat loss.
I really like the way the existing garage door is used as movable insulation to reduce
night heat loss.
Not exact matches
Near the top of the pile, the Knicks»
loss to the Wizards last
night dropped them to 1.5 games behind the Miami
Heat, who beat the Rockets.
If the warming was due to the sun getting hotter, there would be extra
heat arriving during the day but nothing in particular to stop
heat loss after dark, so days would warm faster than
nights.
The
loss of ice cover not only means that more open water will be around to directly warm the air into the Arctic
night, but that more water vapor will be around to hold
heat in.
The earth, however, has an atmosphere which traps some of this
heat loss, as when clouds keep it from becoming so cold at
night.
The latest catchphrase is that GHGs «slow down» the radiative
heat loss by «scattering» a portion — some say half — and therefore the Earth's surfaces do not cool down as much as they would during the
night as they would with less GHGs.
However, since days are generally warmer than
nights, the resulting
loss of
heat by radiation at
night is much smaller than the energy reflected by clouds during daytime.
Compared to the passive solar technique of using a lot of south facing glazing, the LTMS 1) allows more control over the solar
heat gain — it can be turned down or shut off if the solar gain becomes more than the house can use for part of the day, and 2) It eliminates the large
heat loss (especially at
night) associated with the large amount of south glazing in conventional passive solar homes.
This essentially is a moderating effect, and does not seem to be dependent on re-radiation of IR trapping greenhouse gases in anyway, except to the extent that it slows the rate of
heat loss at
night (which may very well be a real — albiet a small — effect).
If a cloudy
night is net
heat loss, then all of the
loss (and some) occurs above the clouds?
That cooling off is an indication of
heat loss on a clear
night isn't it?
In day time the amount of water at saturation point increases with AGW, but more water means more
heat loss and greater pressure drop at
night
I am sure
heat losses Do change day vs
night.
It might be useful for
heat loss, but not
heat gain from the sun (day /
night, latitude, axis tilt).
Heat guard Dwyane Wade wanted to make sure he let out all the frustration the
night before.On the way home after Wednesday's
loss to the Charlotte Hornets, he vented in the car with his wife, actress Gabrielle Union.
