Synopsis:

-Stationary and non-stationary heat conduction

•Heat transfer by convection, classification of heat convection cases, natural convection currents in enclosed spaces

•Heat transfer modelling, similitude criteria, criterion equations

•Heat transfer by radiation, spectral and directional properties of surfaces and heat radiation

•Heat flow in an enclosed system of diffuse grey surfaces, mean radiant temperature in a room

•Solar radiation, direct and diffuse irradiation of the building, radiation of the Earth and building towards the sky

•Combined heat transfer – heat transfer through wall, heat loss from piping and heat storage tanks

•Outdoor climatic conditions, design conditions, characteristic curves

•Heat transfer through opaque building structures, sol-air temperature, heat accumulation effect

•Heat transfer through translucent building structures, thermal and optical properties of glazing

•Moisture transfer by diffusion and convection, similitude criteria, criterion equations

•Moisture transfer in air and building structures

•Combined heat and moisture transfer, analogy between heat and mass transfer by diffusion and convection, wet-bulb thermometer temperature
