The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling thermal radiation from a component. The method involves arranging a thermally conductive base layer in contact with the component, the base layer including a thermally emissive surface. A plurality of independently controlled shutter elements are movable about at least two orthogonal axes, and between closed and open positions, to change a dimension of a gap separating edges of adjacent ones of the shutter elements. The movements of the shutter elements are controlled about the two orthogonal axes to control the dimensions of the gaps to control thermal radiation emitted through the gaps.

A wind turbine with a tower; a nacelle supported by said tower; at least one unit to be cooled and arranged in the tower or the nacelle; a tower mounted heat exchange structure arranged outside the nacelle and tower; and a circuit facilitating a flow of a fluid medium between the at least one unit and the heat exchange structure. To improve thermal convection with the ambient space, the heat exchange structure comprises a set of panels mutually angled and extending outwards from the tower such that a flow of ambient air can pass transversely trough the panels and thereby cool the unit.

A removable radiator fin assembly adapted to removably receive a radiator pipe. The removable fin assembly includes a first plurality of fins and a second plurality of fins having collar flanges sized to receive a radiator pipe. The fins are received on first and second spacer rods, respectively and are hingedly connected by a hinge rod such that the first and second plurality of fins are pivotally movable about the hinge rod between an open position and a closed position. In the open position, the first and second plurality of fins are positionable over the radiator pipe. In the closed position, the collar flanges of the first and second plurality of fins substantially surround the radiator pipe. A fin clamp secures the first and second plurality of fins together in the closed position about the radiator pipe.

A cooling system of an agricultural work vehicle includes a cooling unit including a radiator and configured to perform cooling operation, and a coupling unit rotatably coupling the cooling unit to an inner side wall of an engine room. The coupling unit comprises a hinge part provided on a first side surface of the cooling unit and rotatably coupled to a first inner side wall of the engine room; and a locking part provided on a second side surface of the cooling unit and separably coupled to a second inner side wall of the engine room, wherein when the locking part is separated from the second inner side wall of the engine room, the cooling unit is rotatable on the hinge part.
