| Abstract: |
| Knowledge of the expected long-termperformance of building envelopes subjected to simultaneous heat and moisture transport is critical during the design state. The last few years a number of the practical hygrothermal simulation models have been developed that can be used to analyse the combined heat and moisture behaviour of building constructions. Howerver, hygrothermal analysis using computer tools is not a straightforward task. In this paper is presented a general systematic method for hygrothermal analysis of buidling constructions by the use of simulation models The mehtod is applied on a design case of a wood frame wall, evaluating the risk for mould growth within the construction.
