Abstract :
It is important that the environmental temperature be controlled during in the period of the poultry-heater. Traditionally, the poultry-heater of this warming system is by using of the tungsten lighter. And then, it is difficult to keep the temperature in the range between 30 and 32°C for chicks. In addition, the electronic-energy effect is also lower. Therefore, the purposes of the present studies are to investigate the high-effective warming system for chicks by using of solar energy. Meanwhile, new poultry-heater structure is also developed for saving energy and comfortable state. During raising chicks, the warming system should be continuous function for 1-4 weeks depended season. When the water of the solar system being at 5.7 kg/min fluidity and of 35-57°C, the new development of the poultry-heater is more effective than the tungsten lighter radiation, and saving about 148.6 Kg carbon dioxide emissions for about 1000 chicks growths.
