The semi-closed greenhouse model includes :
- Climate control
- Equipments
- Regulation
The semi-closed greenhouse model includes :
The model implements the following equipements :
Crop evapotranspiration is modelled with climatic parameters as well as type and development of the crop. The climatic parameters are temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, inner air velocity…
Hortinergy provides a comprehensive analysis of the :
We show the results of a semi closed greenhouse located in South France. The climate is hot and dry climate. A pad system performs cooling and dehumidification.
Cooling temperature set : 26°C
Inner climate
Results are temperature, relative humidity, hydric deficit and solar radiation in the greenhouse.
In this example, we show the results during a typical day of July.
The inner temperature is never above 26°C. Hydric deficit is between 2 and 4.5 g/ kg da.
Results also provides the external air flow, water flow and evapotranspiration.
During night time and morning, fans can blow the external air in the greenhouse to dehumidify.
Then, during day time, pad cools the greenhouse.
Hortinergy shows also heating, electricity and water consumption. You have access to an annual overview, a monthly synthesis and hourly data.

Model is being under validation with 2 semi-closed greenhouses in France. They are located in CTIFL in Carquefou (wet climate) and Balandran (dry climate).
With Hortinergy, you can also design cannabis greenhouse with low energy cost and an optimal climate. You can simulate screen, closed greenhouse, assimilation light…
