Improving the Accuracy of a Hygrothermal Model for Wood-Frame Walls: A Cold-Climate Study
A one-dimensional transient hygrothermal model was used to simulate eight different wood-frame wall assemblies. Simulations were compared with measured results from a two-year field study exploring the effects of exterior insulation on wall moisture ...
