Thermal and Condensation Calculations
We specialize in the provision of thermal and condensation analysis services. Our team of building science experts is dedicated to optimizing building envelope systems, which encompass roofs, walls, windows, and doors. Our primary objective is to pinpoint potential issues related to heat transfer and moisture control within the building envelope and offer effective remedies.
Thermal analysis employs computer simulations to create models of heat transfer through various building envelope elements while considering fluctuating environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and wind. This assessment aids in the evaluation of insulation materials, thermal bridging, and potential heat loss or gain.
Condensation analysis is geared towards gauging the risk of moisture accumulation within the building envelope. This modeling process involves tracking the movement of water vapor within the envelope, accounting for its behavior in different materials and conditions that could lead to condensation. By conducting condensation analysis, we identify vulnerable areas prone to moisture-related damage and propose proactive measures.
Our thermal and condensation analysis services serve as indispensable resources for building owners, architects, and engineers striving to enhance the energy efficiency and longevity of their ventures. With our wealth of experience, we proficiently execute thermal analysis adhering to EN and US standards, encompassing U-value computations and evaluations of condensation risk, all tailored to streamline the design process.
Our thermal analysis illuminates the temperature distribution and heat transfer dynamics within and among architectural elements and their surroundings, offering a comprehensive evaluation of a framework’s thermal performance and the overall U-values pertinent to the building envelope.
