Abstract
A climate controlled greenhouse system is a best choice in planting because it has many advantages such as reducing the risk of contamination with pathogens, insect pests and also control the climate to suit the growth of plants. The purpose of this research was to study the mathematical model for use in the controlling of fogging climate control greenhouse and the cooling efficiency of fogging system was evaluated in terms of numerical calculation. The location in this study is Nakhon Ratchasima, North-East of Thailand. The results showed that the fogging system was able to reduce the inside temperature of greenhouse to lower than the outside temperature by 9.63oC and the increasing of intake air flow rate of greenhouse influences on the rising of cooling efficiency and the fogging rate in greenhouse.
