Hygrothermal analysis of a wall isolated from the inside: the potential of dynamic hygrothermal simulation [PDF]
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 Hygrothermal simulations are expected to provide powerful support to the design process in the context of energy retrofit of historic buildings and prevent the moisture-related damages. They can be used to predict the hygrothermal behaviour of the building in detail and exclude the occurrence of moisture related damages, such as mould formation or ...

On cyclical hygrothermal fields in laminated plates [PDF]
Journal of Composite Materials, 2012 This article focuses on the calculation of transient and cyclical hygrothermal fields in laminated composite plates. Water diffusion is simulated by employing Fick’s law, while thermal fields are assumed to be uniform: temperature and water concentration are coupled through the coefficient of hygroscopic diffusivity, which follows a classical Arrhenius

Climate data for hygrothermal simulations of Brussels
Data in Brief, 2022 Moisture is a dominant agent in the degradation of building components. To assess degradation phenomena in building envelopes, hygrothermal simulations are performed. The hygrothermal behaviour of building envelopes depends on the outdoor climate conditions.

, 2019 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 ...

Predicting the hygrothermal behaviour of building components using neural networks [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019 Increasing the energy efficiency of the existing building stock can be accomplished by adding thermal insulation to the building envelope. In case of historic buildings with massive walls, internal insulation is often the only feasible post-insulation ...

Hygrothermal properties of earth bricks
Energy and Buildings, 2014 Abstract The comfort of the occupants and the quality of indoor air are becoming important parameters in the selection of building materials for use inside buildings. Earth is a material that seems to meet all the requirements, essentially because of its low environmental impact and its strong hygroscopic properties, as observed in historic earth ...

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 the structure. Thus, hygrothermal analysis of solutions for such retrofit becomes paramount.
