Design online your closed/sealed greenhouse project

closed-sealed-greenhouse

Designing a sealed greenhouse (closed greenhouse) is now easier than ever with our advanced online software, Hortinergy. Whether you’re cultivating vegetables, flowers, or specialized crops like cannabis.

For your sealed greenhouse, Hortinergy calculates the sensible and latent cooling requirements to control the greenhouse inner climate (temperature, humidity)!

With this energy simulation, you will find a monthly summary in an Excel file and hourly values also in an Excel file for a full representative year.

Hortinergy helps you optimize your greenhouse’s internal climate to maximize growth and efficiency!

Step-by-Step Guide to Design Your Sealed Greenhouse

1. Input Your Sealed Greenhouse Specifications:

Begin by entering the fundamental details about your greenhouse. This includes:

GPS Location: Specify the exact location of your greenhouse to account for local climatic conditions.

Crop Type: Choose the type of crop you are growing, as different crops have varying climate requirements.

Greenhouse Specifications: Input the dimensions, construction materials, and insulation properties of your greenhouse.

Equipment: List any heating, cooling, and ventilation equipment installed or planned for the greenhouse.

Climate Setpoints: Define the desired temperature and humidity levels to maintain optimal growing conditions for your crops.

Then you will have to fill in the following fields : General settings :

2. Run the Simulation:

Once you’ve entered all the necessary data, Hortinergy calculates both the sensible and latent cooling requirements needed to control the internal climate of your greenhouse. Our sophisticated energy simulation algorithm provides comprehensive insights, helping you understand how to manage temperature and humidity.

3. Analyze the Results:

After running the simulation, you’ll receive detailed results, including:

Monthly Summary: An Excel file summarizing the cooling and heating requirements month-by-month.

Or

Hourly Data: An Excel file with hourly climate data for a full representative year, giving you a granular view of how your greenhouse will perform under different conditions.
