Örnek Metin	Improving building energy efficiency is one of the most important challenges towards the mitigation of climate change concerns. Buildings use significant amount of energy for cooling loads. Development of new night-time and day-time radiative cooling modalities by roofs is essential for reducing the energy consumption during the summer months. If a surface is desired to be kept cool while exposed to the sun, it should have (i) the maximum reflection of solar energy at visible wavelength range, and (ii) the maximum radiative emission from the surface at atmospheric radiation bands (8-13 mu m wavelength range). In this study, reinforced concrete panels and three different types of plant-covered roof layers were investigated for their potential use for passive cooling applications, including moss, cactus and green leaves. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) measurements were conducted to determine the absorbance of different samples at infrared wavelengths. In addition, reverse heat leak method was used to determine the effective conductivity values (R-values). The power of cooling parameter of each sample was determined first, and after that a coupled radiation and conduction heat transfer analysis was carried out to evaluate their insulation potential. It was demonstrated that moss is a better candidate to be used as a radiative cooling material, and it is a better insulator than the other tested materials.
