The heat-shielding properties of three-layer external walls insulated with monolithic foam concrete are considered in the article. The temperature is given in rooms operated in intermitt ent heating conditions. An optimal exterior wall design is proposed using monolithic foam concrete for the construction of country cott ages. For this design, the results of heat engineering calculations are presented using the analytical dependence of determining the heat transfer resistance, which ensures the minimum warm-up time of the wall. The results of the calculation are presented in tabular form for a given heating time and density of foam concrete. Also a relationship is described to determine the maximum allowable resistance to heat transfer of the outer wall at diff erent densities of monolithic foam concrete.
The implementation of the energy saving program in construction, adopted in the Russian Federation, has led to a signifi cant change in the design decisions of building envelopes. To achieve the normative values of heat transfer resistance, various facade systems are currently widely used for insulation of external walls using polymeric materials as heaters, which have low values of the coeffi cient of thermal conductivity with a relatively high value of the coeffi cient of vapor permeability. Therefore, when choosing a textured layer of facade systems, it is necessary to take into account the value of its resistance to diff usion of water vapor in order to avoid the accumulation of moisture in the outer walls. The problem associated with the possible accumulation of moisture is especially relevant when designing both three-layer exterior walls and walls with internal insulation. To eliminate the formation of molds on the inner surfaces of the enclosing structures, leading to dangerous diseases of skin and respiratory tract organs, as well as the destruction of building structures, it is necessary to accurately calculate the humidity mode of the enclosing structures in order to protect them from overmoistening. The article presents a methodology for determining the position of the plane of possible condensation in multilayer enclosing structures, based on the use of the dimensionless characteristics method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
