Technicalities

This page is designated for the calculations that were made to find air space inside of the greenhouse and area of the plot. It also includes some tests that were done to monitor the effectiveness of the greenhouse.

Temperature
Before any altercations (outside temperature) - 16 degrees C
Before any altercations (2 inches in soil) - 16 degrees C
After altercations (outside temperature) -​ 8 degrees C
After altercations (2 inches in soil) - 12 degrees C



Measurements 

​Plot size - 131x245cm 

Volume of just the plot - 802,375cm^3

Height of right dome - 73cm

Height of left dome - 80cm 

​Pocket size - 20x16cm

​Surface Area -132,810,730

​Airspace

The picture below is a representation of how we found the volume of plot and then we found the volume of both cubes and then found the volume of the two pyramids and added them all together. 

Airspace - 1,941,747.5 cm^3
