Abstract

Radiative sky cooling cools an object on the earth by emitting thermal infrared radiation to the cold universe through the atmospheric window (8–13 μm). It consumes no electricity and has great potential to be explored for cooling of buildings, vehicles, solar cells, and even thermal power plants. Radiative sky cooling has been explored in the past few decades but limited to nighttime use only. Very recently, owing to the progress in nanophotonics and metamaterials, daytime radiative sky cooling to achieve subambient temperatures under direct sunlight has been experimentally demonstrated. More excitingly, the manufacturing of the daytime radiative sky cooling material by the roll-to-roll process makes large-scale deployment of the technology possible. This work reviews the fundamental principles of radiative sky cooling as well as the recent advances, from both materials and systems point of view. Potential applications in different scenarios are reviewed with special attention to technology viability and benefits. As the energy situation and environmental issues become more and more severe in the 21st century, radiative sky cooling can be explored for energy saving in buildings and vehicles, mitigating the urban heat island effect, resolving water and environmental issues, achieving more efficient power generation, and even fighting against the global warming problem.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
