Summary of Practice4.1 This practice presents a rapid laboratory method for weathering and soiling, which simulates natural changes in solarreflectance and thermal emittance of materials in the field. The practice describes a simulated field exposure protocol that consistsof spraying

The specimen is exposed in a weathering apparatus before soiling, to provide UVconditioning; and after soiling, to simulate the cleani

Significance and Use5.1 The solar reflectance of a building envelope surface affects surface temperature and near-surface ambient air temperature.Surfaces with low solar reflectance absorb a high fraction of the incoming solar energy. Sunlight absorbed by a roof or by o

20、therbuilding envelope surfaces can be conducted into the building, increasing cooling load and decreasing heating load in a conditionedbuilding, or raising indoor temperature in an unconditioned building. It can also warm the outside air by convection. Determinationof solar reflectance can help desi

21、gners and consumers choose appropriate materials for their buildings and communities.5.1.1 The solar reflectance of a new building envelope surface often changes within one to two years through deposition andretention of soot and dust; microbiological growth; exposure to sunlight, precipitation, and

22、 dew; and other processes of soiling andweathering. For example, light-colored “cool” envelope surfaces with high initial reflectance can experience substantial reflectanceloss as they are covered with dark soiling agents. Current product rating programs require roofing manufacturers to report value

A rapid laboratory process forsoiling and weathering that simulates the three-year-aged radiative properties of roof and other building envelope surface materialsexpedites the development, testing, and

24、 introduction to market of such products.5.2 Thermal emittance describes the efficiency with which a surface exchanges thermal radiation with its environment. Highthermal emittance enhances the ability of a surface to stay cool in the sun. The thermal emittance of a bare metal surface is initiallylo

25、w, and often increases as it is soiled or oxidized (4). The thermal emittance of a typical non-metal surface is initially high, andremains high after soiling (5).5.3 This practice allows measurement of the solar reflectance and thermal emittance of a roofing specimen after the applicationof the simu

26、lated field exposure.5.4 This practice is intended to be referenced by another standard, such as ANSI/CRRC S100, that specifies practices forspecimen selection and methods for radiative measurement.6. Standard Practice Method and Apparatus6.1 Soiling AgentsAtmospheric particles originate from windbl

27、own dust, forest and grassland fires, living vegetation, and seaspray, as well as from human activities, such as the burning of fossil and biomass fuels. Most particles either scatter or weaklyabsorb sunlight. A notable exception is black carbon soot emitted from the burning of fossil and biomass fu

28、els and from fires.Because of its strong mass absorption efficiency, small amounts of black soot appreciably contribute to the soiling of buildingsurfaces. An aqueous mixture of four soiling agents (as described below) is used for the simulated field exposure. The soilingagents and their concentrati

29、ons were chosen based on their respective contributions to changes in the solar reflectance spectra ofsoiled surfaces, as determined in the laboratory. These four soiling agents have been shown to accumulate on surfaces exposed innatural outdoor settings (6).6.1.1 SootA commercially available self-d
