Hygrothermal Performance of Exterior Walls in Cold Climate: A Field Study

The durability of the building envelope is closely related to how exterior walls handle various moisture flows over time. Many tools exist that allow to simulate hygrothermal transfers through the building envelope. However, for these many uncertainties are inherent to using these tools, particularly linked to assessing and predicting human behavior ...

The Significance of Using Temperature-Dependent Material Properties in Hygrothermal Performance Assessment of Exterior Wall Systems

Buildings
The reliability of hygrothermal models depends on the quality of their inputs. Conventionally, thermal and moisture properties are treated as temperature-independent, yet previous studies have shown that many of these properties are temperature-dependent.
