Heat transfer efficiency as the determinant of the water mattress design: A sustainable cooling solution for the dairy sector

Climate change and the increasing frequency of heat waves are creating unfavorable conditions for breeding dairy cattle. High relative humidity and air temperature hamper thermoregulation processes, limiting their ability to dissipate excessive heat. The main aim of this study is to provide a soluti...
