Hello
I am studying the influence of green wall and green roof on the value of overall thermal transfer value in tropical climate. One of the coefficient of the OTTV code is the solar absorption factor of building surface, which is in this case is the green plant.
My question is how to estimate the solar absorption of selected green plant, is there is any Equation and techniques I should follow?
I am looking forward to share me your experience, and thank you in advance.
