The Economic and Environmental Impact of Greenhouse Heating Pipe Insulation

Abstract: This study aimed to determine the effect of optimum pipe insulation thickness on energy savings and air pollution under greenhouse conditions. In this regard, an optimization model based on a Life Cycle Cost (LCC) analysis was carried out using the P1–P2 method. Three fuel types, coal, natural gas, and fuel oil, were tested with nominal pipe sizes ranging from 25 to 65 mm, and hot water was used in the system. Our findings showed that the highest insulation thickness (0.807 m), the greatest energy savings ($62… Show more

“…A number of studies also indicated that the performance of hybrid forecasting models outperformed that of single models, and the forecast accuracy was greatly improved by hybrid models [23][24][25]. For example, in Atakum, Turkey, a hybrid model was constructed for ET 0 forecast based on the autoregressive integrated moving average model and generalized regression neural networks, and the hybrid model efectively improved ET 0 forecast accuracy [26]. In Brazil, a hybrid model was established for ET 0 forecast based on support vector machine and artifcial neural network models, and the results showed that the hybrid model had the highest ET 0 forecast efciency and accuracy [27].…”

“…These methods are often complex, nonlinear, influenced by random factors, and rely on multiple assumptions. Each method is optimized based on the specific characteristics and unique weather conditions of the studied area (Küçüktopcu, 2023). However, experimental methods for measuring ET are limited to field or catchment-level applications.…”
