Purpose

Automated scanning of the surface temperature and geometry of space to derive the longwave thermal radiation environment.

Description

A sensor was developed to derive the radiant heat transfer from longwave radiation at any point in spae in an environment by measuring the surface temperature and geometry of all the surroundings. This was used to consider the effect of evaporatively cooled surfaces including those created by evapotranspiration.

Attributes

3D json datasets or meshlab datasets with polar coordinate geometry and temperatures for a full sphere of data.
