Ventilated Air Cavity – Annual Evaluation
The restricting regulations in European legislation lead to significant changes in building designs in order to reduce energy consumption. Possible approach to this phenomenon is to design passive wooden houses which provide high thermal resistance whilst maintaining relatively small structure thickness. Scientists engaged in these wooden structures focus nowadays on issues linked to the timber-framed wall structures, amongst others durability, heat capacity, or summer overheating. This paper focuses on measurements of a light-weight wooden wall assembly with ventilated air cavity which is one of possible solutions not only to reduce the influence of weather changes, but also to reduce overheating of interior space. This specific assembly is implemented in pavilion research of Department of Civil Engineering and Urban Planning within UNIZA campus in Zilina, Slovakia. It summarizes annual measurements of temperature and relative humidity in the sample center and near the wooden studs. Contribution describes the potential of using ventilated air cavity to maintain steady conditions thorough whole year.
