Experimental investigation of thermal bridges in building at real conditions
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 In recent time the energy consumption of buildings may be reduced by the application of modern technologies in the construction industry. Modern building materials ensure a reduction of heat losses. However, studies show that thermal bridges may cause up

Point thermal bridges of insulated pitched roof structures
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 The current demands on building insulation are continuously increasing. It is understood that the lower the heat transfer coefficient of a particular part of a construction is, the greater the importance of systemic thermal bridges. This article compares

Patents Analysis of Thermal Bridges in Slab Fronts and Their Effect on Energy Demand
Energies, 2018 Nowadays, the building sector is one of the main sources emitting pollutant gases to the atmosphere due to its deficient energy behaviour. Among the elements of the envelope, the thermal bridges are where the heat losses and gains mainly occur, depending

Comparison of thermal bridge calculation methods
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022 We need to consider linear heat losses due to thermal bridges for the accurate calculation of building heat losses. Our research examined a whole building, and different thermal bridge calculation methods were compared.

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

Experimental and Numerical Characterizataion of Thermal Bridges in Windows
Advances in Science and Technology Research Journal, 2023 Actions aimed at improving the energy performance of buildings increase the share of heat loss through thermal bridges and windows in a building’s energy balance. This is especially true of buildings currently under construc - tion.
