Cob: Thermal mass and climateDarel Henman henman at it.to-be.co.jpMon Apr 22 21:24:45 CDT 2002
Patrick, That would be wonderful. I'm sure many of us would appreciate seeing your data. What sort of time slots are you considering? For example hourly, semi-daily, etc. Humidity measurements on an equal time slot would be of great interest and show how the humidity is buffered by the wall. Just an idea, in case you haven't thought of this yet: What I found most helpful for one set of data I saw was, the measurements of both internal temperatures and humidity and outside temperature and humidity. These, inside - outside measurement differences, show how well the structure is performing.
