Hygrothermal Performance of Worship Spaces: Preservation, Comfort, and Energy Consumption [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2018
The energy problem, one the most important on a global scale, greatly affects the environment. Much of the current energy consumption occurs in existing buildings, including heritage buildings with varying protected status. Energy intervention and heritage conservation conflict to some extent, as research focuses more on the search for improved energy ...

Hygrothermal Modelling of the Differences between Single versus Variable Relative Humidity Vapour Diffusion Resistivity Properties of Pliable Membranes

open access: yesCivilEng, 2022
The study investigates through hygrothermal modelling the effect of different boundary conditions and varying measured vapour diffusion resistivity values on the hygrothermal performance of five pliable membranes. Previously, this research quantified the

Hygrothermic performance of the exterior and interior surfaces of buildings [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, 2008
One of the current tasks of building physics is to find solutions in sense of the sustainability. That means we must save heating energy and raw materials. Therefore we have to develop building envelope parts with innovative characteristics. This paper shows the coupled heat and moisture transfer at adjacent areas of surfaces of the envelope parts of ...

Hygrothermal ageing characterisation of epoxy resin based on transmission characteristics of microwave resonator with interdigital‐capacitor‐shaped defected ground structure

open access: yesHigh Voltage, 2023
In this article, a method is proposed for the characterisation of epoxy resin thermal and hygrothermal ageing based on microwave resonator with interdigital‐capacitor‐shaped defected ground structure (IDCS‐DGS), which can realise rapid and simple non ...

Effect of hygrothermal environment on mechanical properties and damage mechanism of CFRP

open access: yesCailiao gongcheng, 2019
The moisture absorption properties of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) laminates treated with three kinds of hygrothermal environments (relative humidity 85% RH, temperature 25, 70, 85℃ respectively) were investigated by accelerated moisture ...

Development of prefabricated insulation elements for buildings with aerated autoclaved concrete walls [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
An extensive need for the refurbishment and renewal of existing building stock has been the focus of consideration for many decades, principally because of the high global energy consumption and pollution levels.
