On the Effects of Variation of Thermal Conductivity in Buildings in the Italian Construction Sector

Stationary and dynamic heat and mass transfer analyses of building components are an essential part of energy efficient design of new and retrofitted buildings. Generally, a single constant thermal conductivity value is assumed for each material layer in construction components. However, the variabi...
