Dynamic Thermal Properties of Uninsulated Rammed Earth Building Envelopes

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper demonstrates the thermal admittance procedure as a technique to quantify the dynamic thermal properties of two uninsulated rammed earth building components subjected to radiative and conductive heat transfer processes. With the aid of Australian climate data and a climate chamber, this research paper uses a dynamic thermal property calculator developed by Arup in accordance with EN ISO 13786:2007 to quantify the performance of a homogenous rammed earth envelope subjected to in-situ measurements that mimic real conditions.
