辐射制冷技术最早于 1960 至 1970 年代在温带气候地区（如欧洲）被采用。建筑师和工程师希望减少供暖与制冷的能源消耗，因此开始探索这一创新技术。
Objects above absolute zero release radiation, leading to energy loss and cooling.
Highly emissive materials and coatings are ideal for enhancing radiative cooling by efficiently emitting infrared radiation. ...
Some advanced systems combine radiative coolingwith other cooling methods to increase efficiency.
FlatCool radiant cooling utilizes the combination of radiant and natural convective heat transfer from occupants, equipment and fixtures inside the indoor space to create a cooled environment.
FlatCool System can be switched to heating mode by circulating warm water instead of chilled water through the same network pipes, providing efficient and comfortable heating while utilizing the existing infrastructure.
Together with a dedicated outdoor air system (DOAS), the system achieves excellent human comfort and eliminates the disturbance due to cold draft, high humidity and uneven temperature gradient.

FlatCool Panel circulates with chilled water through pipes embedded in the panels, absorbing heat from the room through radiation and convection.
Benefits include improved comfort, energy efficiency, reduced noise, and less maintenance compared to traditional Air conditioning systems.
While ideal for commercial spaces like offices and hotels, FlatCool System can also be used in varuios type of building depending on design and climate.
Condition space temperature can be controlled through FlatCool’s smart environmental control system/building management systems that adjust the chilled water flow rate based on occupancy and comfort needs.
Relatively higher initial installation costs, and the need for proper control and system installation workmanship to prevent condensation and water leakage from pipes as water pipe connections are more compared to traditional air conditioning system.
Yes, they can work alongside other systems, such as underfloor heating or traditional air conditioning, for optimal climate control.
Regular checks of the water supply, insulation, and system components are necessary to ensure efficient operation and prevent leaks. Also, periodic calibration for sensors and control system update for maintaining the stability and superior comfort are recommended.
In humid climates or seasons, additional dehumidification may be necessary to prevent condensation on the FlatCool panels and to ensure the system work efficiently.
