tropical greenhouse design based the hot and rainy climate, also named sawtooth greenhouse the greenhouse height alway more than 7 meter with top ventilation sawtooth windows.. have big cooling systems and inner shading system
There is also a branch of the multi-span film greenhouse, that is, the tropical sawtooth film greenhouse. The characteristic of the sawtooth film greenhouse is that because of its large vertical windows, it is better than the multi-span film greenhouse in terms of ventilation and cooling in summer, so the sawtooth film Greenhouses are more suitable to be built in the hot south in summer
The sawtooth greenhouse, as the name suggests, is that the structure at the top is arranged like a zigzag greenhouse. Jagged greenhouses are common in the southern region. Today, I will briefly introduce the advantages and disadvantages of jagged greenhouses.
Sawtooth multi-span greenhouse structure
The sawtooth skeleton structure is composed of a column, a beam, a sawtooth column, a sawtooth semi-arc, and a sawtooth strut. The sawtooth height of the sawtooth greenhouse is determined according to the span of a single sawtooth, and the height is at least 1.5 meters.
Advantages of the sawtooth structure
The vertical windows on the vertical part of the greenhouse roof are located at the highest point of the greenhouse. The indoor hot air rises and exchanges with the outdoor air through the vertical windows. The sawtooth-shaped greenhouse can achieve the best natural ventilation effect. After adopting the sawtooth roof greenhouse, due to the smooth natural convection formed between the sawtooth opening and the air inlet of the surrounding walls of the greenhouse, as long as a certain gap is left between the shading nets, the indoor hot air will be quickly discharged to the outside, reducing the indoor temperature.
2. In areas with hot summers and frequent rains in the south, the ventilation openings on the top facade of the sawtooth are not affected by the rainfall and do not need to be closed. This is also the biggest difference between the ventilation on the top of the round arch.
