Energy Relationships in the Design of Floating Covers for Evaporation Reduction
Keith R. Cooley · Water Resources Research (1970)
Key finding (our summary)
An early treatment of the energy relationships that govern floating-cover design for evaporation reduction, relating cover optical and thermal properties to performance.
Shows that floating-cover physics was being formalised decades before today’s modular products.
