To maximize the use of solar energy and increase the building area of solar greenhouses in China, a light radiation model for solar greenhouses is established. This model integrates previous research results with the solar motion principle, meteorological data and the optical properties of materials. The results indicate that optimizing the structural curve of the south roof of the greenhouse improves both internal land utilization and solar capture. After optimization, the internal land utilization rate of the solar greenhouse increased by 42 m, with a respective 15.2 and 0.78% increase in lighting on the southern roof and ground. The light interception by the back wall of the greenhouse was reduced by 0.67%, while the total light interception increased by 2.22%. The research results identify the optimal shoulder height (0.7 m) and overall height (2 m) for the second-generation solar greenhouse in Liaoshen. The optimal curve functions and for the south roofs of greenhouses are calculated according to the actual construction requirements. This article verifies the structural safety of the solar greenhouse after renovation and shows that optimizing the shoulder height increases the structural stability and safety of the greenhouse.
