Author(s) : DELMAS A., ARQUIS E.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The predicted heat transfer in this type of composite medium, obtained with the code, was compared with experimental results where the porous medium is a low-density insulating material in which some wood joists are included. This configuration corresponds to the layer of insulation on the floor of a residential attic.
