Dynamic Thermal Performance of an Experimental Masonry Building
Measurements of the dynamic heat transfer in an experimental masonry building were made in a large environmental chamber to explore the validity of a computer program developed at NBS, labeled NBSLD, for computing heating and cooling loads, and indoor air temperatures. This study was jointly supported by the National Bureau of Standards and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and is a part of a broader research program being supported by both agencies to improve performance test procedures and criteria for housing. The experimental structure was a one-room house 20' long, 20' wide, and 10' high with walls of solid concrete blocks and a flat roof made of reinforced precast concrete slabs. During the tests changes were made in fenestration, the amount and location of insulation, and the indoor mass; and the building was exposed to a diurnal temperature cycle.
