Hygrothermal Modeling of Masonry with Interior Insulation Retrofit - Perspectives on hygrothermal performance and modeling-uncertainty

, 2021
Energy retrofit of existing buildings is mainly an endeavor to reduce energy consumption. Interior insulation retrofit of masonry falls among retrofit measures in this regard. However, interior insulation of masonry may give rise to hygrothermal risks in

Verification and validation: establishing confidence in hygrothermal tools

, 2009
The hygrothermal performance of building envelope systems is dictated by their responses to combined heat, air and moisture fluctuations produced by exterior and interior conditions. Research has focused on both laboratory experimentation and modeling of
