In its continuing efforts to improve production and storage,
European agriculture and food industry consumes ever more energy.
Hence, as was the case for all European sectors founded on
intensive energy consump tion, agriculture was also severely
affected by the shortages and price increases of conventional
energy sources over the past decade. The energy consciousness
generated in this way led to a widespread con sideration of the
application of other, renewable energy sources. The potential
applications in agriculture are, however, extremely diverse, and
this explains to a great extent the fragmentary nature and even in
some cases the mediocre level of current research. The objective of
this book is, therefore, to guide the reader in a syste matic way
through the apparent chaos of operational data which are currently
available on the subject matter: thermal applications within
agriculture of solar energy by means of solar collectors, passive
designs and storage devices. While in volume I of this series H
this area is assessed from a more general economic perspective,
this tome II takes a more detailed technical approach. The results
of this book were produced in the form of a European concerted
action under the leadership of the Commission in Brussels. All
possible data were collected by national representatives in the EC
member countries. Coordinators were Professor V. Goedseels and Mr
E. Van der Stuyft from the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and
Professor G."
