Hygrothermal performance of building envelopes in the tropics under operative conditions : condensation and mould growth risk appraisal [PDF]
Poor indoor hygrothermal performance increases the risk of indoor moisture problems and deterioration due to mould growth, corrosion and damage to archival materials. Hence, proper control of indoor thermohygric intensity abates indoor moisture and its

Hygrothermal properties relationships in historic bricks
As part of an ongoing research project to better understand the hygrothermal performance of solid masonry brick buildings, the material properties of dozens of historic fired clay bricks have been measured. This paper discusses the relationship between density, porosity, capillary and saturation moisture content as well as thermal conductivity. A clear

This project deliverable describes the outcome of the SubTask 3.4.2, based on hygrothermal analyses of the developed RE4 timber façade and concrete sandwich panel. In particular, Finite Element Analyses have been performed in order to assess a global transmittance value (U value) to both building elements, followed by surface and interstitial ...

Hygrothermal climate analysis: An Australian dataset
Transient hygrothermal assessments rely on the definition of external climatic conditions, usually collected in a moisture reference year (MRY) file. Currently, hygrothermal climate files for Australia are not available, leaving researchers and practitioners to either use typical meteorological years (TMY) files, generated for thermal analysis, or ...

Indoor air quality and early detection of mould growth in residential buildings: a case study
Mould growth affects one in three homes, and it is the biggest cause for complaints and litigations filed to the relevant authorities in Australia, while also significantly affecting the physical and psychological health of the building’s occupants ...
