Summary

Radiation has been an effective and proven way of heat transfer since ancient times; radiant heating, in particular, has been in existence in Europe for several centuries. But radiant cooling is a relatively new application of radiation heat transfer and is being used widely in Europe and to some extent in the US for the last 15-20 years. Radiant cooling is highly efficient compared to regular air conditioning due to the high water temperatures used, minimized air system and better quality of thermal comfort. Infosys, a premier IT company in India, in its quest towards energy efficiency and sustainability, constructed the first radiant cooled commercial building in India in its campus in Hyderabad.
