A response-factor method for calculating coupled heat and moisture transfer in building | 1991 | English
Analytical solutions for coupled diffusion of heat and moisture through a material are used to develop a generalisation of the wellknown 2 x 2 matrix method for describing heat flow only.
An Educational Desing For Courseware Relating To Heating Load Calculations in Buildings | 1991 | English
Courseware is educational software, designed to create an instructional environment, for the purpose of facilitating learning.
The presentation of most HVAC simulation programs are out of date and batch processing type. Their use is complex and often requires a good data processing knowledge.
A first order correction to uni-directional heat transfer is proposed, so that multi-dimensional heat transfer effects can be accounted for with only a moderate increase in storage and CPU timerequirements.
