Passive Building Model: Role of Thermal Insulation

¿This book has been written to present elementary practical and efficient applications in saving energy concept, as well as propose a solitary action for this category of topics.¿It illustrates various methods in treatment the concept of thermal insulation such as processes and the attempt to build an efficient passive building model.¿While high-performance windows are a critical component of passive buildings, transparent or translucent envelopes can also be used to increase energy performance. These materials allow natural light to enter the building while also providing thermal insulation.¿A new method for numerical modeling has been described that takes into account the thermal conductivity and diffusivity of the insulation material, as well as the geometry and boundary conditions of the system.¿The book would be a useful resource for students and academics studying sustainable design principles, energy-efficient building construction, and heat transfer.
