Performance Evaluation of Thermal Bridge Reduction Method for Balcony in Apartment Buildings

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Most apartment buildings in South Korea use internal insulation systems to reduce building energy demand. However, thermal bridges such as balcony slabs in apartment buildings still lead to significant heat loss in winter, because the internal insulation

Thermal–optical analysis of quartz fiber filters loaded with snow samples – determination of iron based on interferences caused by mineral dust [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2022
The determination of mineral dust and elemental carbon in snow samples is of great interest, since both compounds are known to be light-absorbing snow impurities. Different analytical methods have to be used to quantify both compounds.
