Author(s) : HASSID S.

Type of article: Article

Summary

DESCRIBES AN INTEGRAL APPROACH DEVELOPED TO CALCULATE THERMAL-BRIDGE EFFECTS AT THE JUNCTION BETWEEN DISSIMILAR MULTILAYER WALLS. STATES THE MODEL IS BASED ON THE SOLUTION OF THE INTEGRATED TWO-DIMENSIONAL CONDUCTION EQUATION FOR THE MAIN WALL AND THE THERMAL BRIDGE, WITH APPROPRIATE BOUNDARY CONDITIONS BETWEEN THE 2 SOLUTIONS. THE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS AND MINIMUM INTERNAL SURFACE TEMPERATURES AS PREDICTED BY THE MODEL ARE SHOWN TO COMPARE FAVOURABLY WITH A COMPUTATIONAL SOLUTION FOR 6 TYPESOF THERMAL BRIDGES APPEARING IN THE INTERNATIONAL STANDARD FOR THERMAL BRIDGES.
