๐ฌ Professional Greenhouse & CEA Engineering Suite
Smart Farm Engineering Lab is a free, open-source suite of high-precision online calculators built for greenhouse growers, CEA (Controlled Environment Agriculture) designers, horticultural researchers, and agricultural engineers. Unlike generic farming apps, every tool here is grounded in peer-reviewed biophysical and thermodynamic models โ from the Tetens equation for Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) to the Penman-Monteith transpiration model, DIN 4701 / ASABE EP406 greenhouse thermal loss, and EN 1452 hydronic pipe sizing standards.
