Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Bad experiences with construction quality, the energy crises of 1973 and 1979, complaints about "sick buildings", thermal, acoustical, visual and olfactory discomfort, the need for good air quality, the move towards more sustainability - all these have accelerated the development of a field that, for a long time, was hardly more than an academic exercise: building physics (in English speaking countries sometimes referred to as building science). The discipline embraces domains such as heat and mass transfer, building acoustics, lighting, indoor environmental quality and energy efficiency. In some countries, fire safety is also included. Through the application of physical knowledge and its combination with information coming from other disciplines, the field helps to understand the physical phenomena governing building parts, building envelope, whole buildings and built environment performance, although for the last the wording "urban physics" is used. Today, building physics has become a key player on the road to a performance based building design. The book deals with the description, analysis and modeling of heat, air and moisture transport in building assemblies and whole buildings with main emphasis on the building engineering applications, including examples. The physical transport processes determine the performance of the building envelope and may influence the serviceability of the structure and the whole building. Compared to the second edition, in this third edition the text has partially been revised and extended.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Während ein erstes Buch über Bauphysik die physikalischen Grundlagen des Wärme-, Luft- und Feuchteverhaltens von Gebäuden, Baukonstruktionen und Bauteilen behandelt, richtet dieses zweite Buch über Angewandte Bauphysik den Fokus auf die Frage, worin eine ausgewogene Gebäude-Performance besteht. Zunächst werden die Umwelteinwirkungen auf Gebäude erläutert - also all jene Parameter, die die äußeren und inneren Umgebungsbedingungen beschreiben, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der praktischen Umsetzung liegt. Anschließend folgt die Erörterung jener Leistungsanforderungen, die auf der Ebene des gesamten Gebäudes von Bedeutung sind, wobei hauptsächlich der thermische, akustische, visuelle und olfaktorische Komfort, die Innenraumluftqualität, der Energieverbrauch, die Dauerhaftigkeit, die Wirtschaftlichkeit und die Nachhaltigkeit betrachtet werden. Es folgt eine eingehende Diskussion der Anforderungen bzgl. Wärme-, Luft- und Feuchte-Verhalten sowie der Messgrößen auf der Ebene der Baukonstruktionen. Die in diesem Buch beschriebenen Analysen und Berechnungen führen zu nachhaltigen Gebäuden, die aus funktionalen und dauerhaften Baukonstruktionen bestehen und ein angenehmes und gesundes Raumklima aufweisen. Der gesamte Text, einschließlich der Abbildungen, wurde überarbeitet und wo nötig neu formuliert. In Kapitel 3 wurden die Ausführungen über den Komfort nicht nur auf den thermischen, sondern auch auf den akustischen, visuellen und olfaktorischen Komfort ausgedehnt. Auch der Teil zur Luftqualität in Innenräumen ist erweitert, ebenso wie der Teil zur Nachhaltigkeit. In Kapitel 4 wurde ein Beispiel aus der Praxis hinzugefügt. Das letzte Kapitel über Materialeigenschaften wurde in das Buch zur Bauphysik verschoben und durch einen Anhang zum schnellen Nachschlagen ersetzt, der lediglich Richtwerte enthält, für die Listen mit Standardwerten fehlen.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Bad experiences with construction quality, the energy crises of 1973 and 1979, complaints about "sick buildings", thermal, acoustical, visual and olfactory discomfort, the need for good air quality, the move towards energy efficiency, decarbonization and sustainability ? all these have accelerated the development of a discipline that, for a long time, was hardly more than an academic exercise: building physics. The discipline embraces domains such as heat and mass transfer, building acoustics, lighting, indoor environmental quality, energy efficiency, and, in some countries, fire safety. Through the application of physical knowledge and its combination with information coming from other disciplines, building physics helps to under-stand the physical phenomena governing building parts, building envelope, whole building and built environment performance ? called urban physics. Today, building physics has be-come a key player on the road to highly performing new buildings and renovations. This book deals with heat, air and moisture transport in building parts or assemblies and whole buildings with emphasis on the building engineering applications. Compared to the third edition, this fourth edition has been expanded in chapter 1 to include the physical determination of the thermal conductivity of materials, together with an in-depth discussion of all the effects of thicker insulation layers. In chapter 2, additional information has been added on wind pressure and the evaluation of condensation inside the building com-ponents, while a new chapter 4 on material properties has been included. The whole book, including the figures, has been revised and restructured where necessary. …
