Theoretical calculations of the steady-state heat losses through a slab-on- ground floor
Abstract A new analytical expression for the two-dimensional steady-state heat loss from a slab-on-ground floor is derived as a function of the floor width, wall thickness, ground conductivity, and surface film conductance. Two approximate forms, which are easier to calculate, arealso given. Analogous approximate expressions are obtained for the three-dimensional case. Comparisons with previous theoretical work generally show good agreement, except for very small floors, for which the expressions derived here predict somewhat lower heat losses.
