Optimization of Random Silica-Polymethylpentene (TPX) Radiative Coolers Towards Substantial Cooling Capacity

and M. Santamouris
Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells Volume 234, January 2022, 111419
The context of global warming, radiative coolers with high solar reflectance and strong emissivity in the atmospheric window can cool the substrate as well as the ambient air. Silica at its nano or micro-scale being randomly dispersed into a uniform transparent polymer can form scalable radiative coolers for large-scale application. Promising cooling performance has been reported for silica-polymers compared with conventional cooling materials, but their performance can be largely influenced by various fabrication parameters.

On the mitigation potential and climatic impact of modified urban albedo on a subtropical desert city
Afifa Mohammed, Ansar Khan, Mattheos Santamouris
Extreme urban heat alongside higher ambient temperatures in urban areas causes serious energy, comfort, health and environmental problems. The implementation of urban heat mitigation techniques can significantly reduce urban temperatures and counterbalance the impact of extreme urban heat.

Μάνθος Σανταμούρης: Η κλιματική αλλαγή και η αντιμετώπισή της – Podcast
Ο Μάνθος Σανταμούρης διακεκριμένος καθηγητής Φυσικής Ενέργειας στο Πανεπιστήμιο New South Wales της Αυστραλίας μιλάει στο artpointview.gr και τη Ρίτσα Μασούρα για την ανάγκη αποδοχής και ανάσχεσης της κλιματικής αλλαγής, τονίζοντας ότι εισερχόμαστε σε μια νέα πραγματικότητα που ουδεμία σχέση έχει με όσες έχουμε ζήσει ως τώρα.

Το Ριάντ, η Αθήνα, κι ένας Έλληνας ερευνητής που πολεμάει την αστική υπερθέρμανση
Καθώς η θερμοκρασία στο Ριάντ, την πρωτεύουσα της Σαουδικής Αραβίας, αγγίζει τους 45 βαθμούς Κελσίου και η ζωή στην πόλη των 5 εκατομμυρίων κατοίκων έχει γίνει πια αφόρητη, η βασιλική επιτροπή του Ριάντ προσέφυγε στο Πανεπιστήμιο της Νέας Νότιας Ουαλίας στο Σίδνεϊ και στην
