Summary

A mathematical model describing the performance of a modified Australian cooling system is presented. The modified Australian cooling system is a night cold storage system enhanced by radiative cooling. The working fluid in the modified cooling system is cooled by passing the fluid through a radiative cooling panel which cools itself by long-wave thermal radiation to the cold sky temperature. An analytical, closed form solution is presented which predicts the temperature response of the modified system. The analytical solutions are verified experimentally, where it is found that both theoretical and experimental results are in good agreement.
