Recent Advances in Experimental and Numerical Study on Thermal Conductivity of the Composite Wall

Abstract:

With the rapid development of human society, the construction industry is booming. How to reduce the building's impact on the environment has become a common problem of the concerns of the community. In recent years, the green building is growing up. As a key part of green building, the composite wall insulation system has attracted the attention of many researchers. This paper presents some recent advances in the experimental and numerical analysis of the thermal conductivity of composite wall, and is expected to serve as a reference for future research and development of green building.
