Experimental Modelling of Masonry Buildings' Thermal Performance

建筑物热性能的数学建模已被确定为设计节能建筑所需的关键技术之一。该项目的目的是开发一个实验模型的典型砌体外壳的热响应，通过建立输入和输出测量从几个全尺寸的测试房子，而不是依赖于保护原则之间的关系。一旦验证，所提出的模型将被用来评估广泛的墙体系统的热性能。这将导致更好的理解机制影响砌体外壳在澳大利亚气候条件下的热行为。

Mathematical modelling of the thermal performance of buildings has been identified as one of the key technologies necessary for designing energy-efficient buildings. The aim of this project is to develop an experimental model of the thermal response of typical masonry enclosures by establishing relationships between input and output measurements from several full-scale test houses rather than relying on conservation principles. Once validated, the proposed model will be employed to evaluate the thermal performance of a wide range of walling systems. This should lead to an improved understanding of mechanisms influencing the thermal behaviour of masonry enclosures under Australian climatic conditions.
