Evaluating Patterns of Building Envelope Air Leakage with Infrared Thermography

Evaluating Patterns of Building Envelope Air Leakage with Infrared Thermography

The next-generation performance-based building energy codes are focusing on minimizing building envelope air leakage. The quantification of air leakage in buildings is typically performed with a blower door test. However, this test does not provide information about the locations of air leakage. The...
