PH-79-11-4 -- Air Infiltration Effects on the Thermal Transmittance of Concrete Building Systems

Field measurements of thermal transmittance have been performed on two types ofconcrete buildings using portable guarded hotbox equipment. Air infiltrationmeasurements of these same two types of concrete systems were made in the laboratory.It is the primary purpose of this paper to present the effects of the airinfiltration on the over-all heat transfer coefficients.
