Re: [TRNSYS-users] Variable global thermal conductivity
Thank you David for the proposition but do you think the effect on the
internal
convective heat transfer coefficient will lead to same effect than the wind
infiltration in the insulation ?
This last effect leads to a decrease of the insulation performance of the
mineral
wool. We would like to quantify the impact on the energy consumption
taking this
effect into account or not.
Your proposition will imply to translate de global U of the roof as a
function of
the wind velocity and incidence into a modification of the external and
internal
convective heat transfer coefficient.
Is there only your proposition as a solution (except creating a new type
and link it
the Type 56 as the roof façade) ?
Best regards,
Denis
