C-Shape Customized Greenhouse – Longquanyi District, Chengdu
Project Overview
Located in Longquanyi District, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, this custom-engineered C-shaped greenhouse spans approximately 100,000 square meters (10 hectares). Designed as a high-end facility for ornamental plant production, it integrates multiple advanced systems to create an optimal growing environment year-round.
The C-shaped layout follows the natural contour of the site, allowing the structure to blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape while maximizing land utilization efficiency. This large-scale facility serves as a model for modern protected horticulture in Southwest China.
Key Systems & Equipment
The greenhouse is equipped with the following core systems:
| System | Description |
|---|---|
| Cooling System | Fan-and-pad evaporative cooling (wet curtain + exhaust fans) — reduces internal temperature by 5–8°C below ambient; ideal for hot summers |
| Shading System | External and/or internal shade screens (45%–99% shading rate), automatically deployed based on light intensity sensors |
| Automation Control System | IoT-based central controller integrating temperature, humidity, light, CO₂, and irrigation; supports remote monitoring via mobile app |
| Substrate Cultivation System | Soilless growing medium (e.g., coconut coir, perlite, or peat-based mixes) with drip irrigation for precise water and nutrient delivery |
| Ventilation System | Ridge vents and sidewall roll-up curtains for natural airflow when conditions permit |
| Heating System (optional) | Hot water pipe loops or heat pumps for winter temperature maintenance |
| Irrigation & Fertigation | Automated dosing system mixing fertilizers into irrigation water; EC/pH sensors ensure nutrient accuracy |
| Lighting System (supplemental) | LED inter-lighting or HPS lamps for photoperiod control and cloudy-day compensation |

Design Advantages of C-Shaped Greenhouse
1. Enhanced Structural Strength and Wind Resistance
The curved C-shaped design distributes external loads (wind, snow, seismic forces) more evenly across the frame than traditional rectangular structures. The smooth, continuous surface reduces wind resistance, making the greenhouse highly suitable for open agricultural zones in Chengdu’s hilly terrain. The arch-like geometry also eliminates flat surfaces where snow or debris could accumulate, lowering maintenance requirements in winter conditions.
2. Optimized Natural Light Penetration
The curved roof captures sunlight from multiple angles throughout the day and across seasons. This improves photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) uniformity inside the growing zone, reducing shaded “dead corners” often found in conventional gable greenhouses. For flower and high-value crop production, consistent light distribution directly translates to better color, uniform growth, and higher marketable yield.
3. Superior Water Runoff and Drainage
The curved surface facilitates natural shedding of rainwater and condensation, preventing water pooling on the roof which could cause structural overloading or light obstruction. This is especially valuable in Chengdu’s humid subtropical climate with significant seasonal rainfall.
4. Space Efficiency and Internal Layout Flexibility
By following the site’s natural contour, the C-shaped design maximizes usable floor area while reducing land preparation and earthwork costs. The absence of internal support columns creates unobstructed space for substrate cultivation rows, automated irrigation booms, and worker movement.
5. Energy Efficiency through Passive Solar Design
The curved envelope minimizes the surface area exposed to harsh afternoon sun compared to flat-roof designs, reducing peak cooling loads. When combined with double-layer covering and thermal screens, this shape helps maintain stable internal temperatures with lower energy input.
6. Aesthetic Integration with Landscape
The C-shaped greenhouse offers a visually appealing, organic appearance that integrates harmoniously with Chengdu’s rolling hills and agricultural park settings. This enhances its value for agritourism and educational demonstration purposes, in addition to pure production functions.
Summary
The C-shaped customized greenhouse in Longquanyi District, Chengdu, represents a state-of-the-art facility combining structural innovation with comprehensive environmental control systems. Its cooling, shading, automation, and substrate cultivation components enable precise, data-driven crop management across its 100,000 m² footprint. The distinctive C-shaped design offers significant technical advantages in load distribution, light transmission, water management, space efficiency, and energy conservation, making it a high-performance solution for large-scale floriculture and specialty crop production in Southwest China.
