Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transfer of heat and moisture through textiles is vital to the manufacture and design of clothing, technical and protective textiles. Continued advances in textile processing technology, the growth of manufactured nonwovens and the application of nanotechnology have resulted in a wealth of research in order to characterise the behaviour of these materials. Thermal and moisture transport in fibrous materials provides a comprehensive guide of the technological developments and scientific understanding in this area. The first section summarises the structure, geometry and stereology of fibrous materials. The fundamentals of wetting and its dynamics are also discussed. Part two analyses thermal and liquid interactions in textiles and offers insights into the thermodynamic behaviour of moisture as well as heat and moisture coupling. The book concludes with chapters on the human thermoregulatory system, interfacing between fibrous materials and the human body and innovative computer modelling simulations. Thermal and moisture transport in fibrous materials is an essential reference for all those involved in the textile industry, especially those concerned with the design and manufacture of technical textiles and protective clothing.

Download or read book Building Physics -- Heat, Air and Moisture written by Hugo S. L. Hens and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-01-09 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Note: New editions of this book have been published: the 2nd edition in 2012, the 3rd edition in 2017, and the 4th edition in September 2023. Bad experiences with construction quality, the energy crises of 1973 and 1979, complaints about 'sick buildings', thermal, acoustical, visual and olfactory discomfort, the move towards more sustainability, have all accelerated the development of a field, which until 35 years ago was hardly more than an academic exercise: building physics. Through the application of existing physical knowledge and the combination with information coming from other disciplines, the field helps to understand the physical performance of building parts, buildings and the built environment, and translates it into correct design and construction. This book is the result of thirty years teaching, research and consultancy activity of the author. The book discusses the theory behind the heat and mass transport in and through building components. Steady and non steady state heat conduction, heat convection and thermal radiation are discussed in depth, followed by typical building-related thermal concepts such as reference temperatures, surface film coefficients, the thermal transmissivity, the solar transmissivity, thermal bridging and the periodic thermal properties. Water vapour and water vapour flow and moisture flow in and through building materials and building components is analyzed in depth, mixed up with several engineering concepts which allow a first order analysis of phenomena such as the vapour balance, the mold, mildew and dust mites risk, surface condensation, sorption, capillary suction, rain absorption and drying. In a last section, heat and mass transfer are combined into one overall model staying closest to the real hygrothermal response of building components, as observed in field experiments. The book combines the theory of heat and mass transfer with typical building engineering applications. The line from theory to application is dressed in a correct and clear way. In the theory, oversimplification is avoided. This book is the result of thirty years teaching, research and consultancy activity of the author.

This book was released on 2012-12-12 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With major implications for applied physics, engineering, and the natural and social sciences, the rapidly growing area of environmental fluid dynamics focuses on the interactions of human activities, environment, and fluid motion. A landmark for the field, the two-volume Handbook of Environmental Fluid Dynamics presents the basic principles, fundamental flow processes, modeling techniques, and measurement methods used in the study of environmental motions. It also offers critical discussions of environmental sustainability related to engineering. The handbook features 81 chapters written by 135 renowned researchers from around the world. Covering environmental, policy, biological, and chemical aspects, it tackles important cross-disciplinary topics such as sustainability, ecology, pollution, micrometeorology, and limnology. Volume One: Overview and Fundamentals provides a comprehensive overview of the basic principles. It starts with general topics that emphasize the relevance of environmental fluid dynamics research in society, public policy, infrastructure, quality of life, security, and the law. It then discusses established and emerging focus areas. The volume also examines the sub-mesoscale flow processes and phenomena that form the building blocks of environmental motions, with emphasis on turbulent motions and their role in heat, momentum, and species transport. As communities face existential challenges posed by climate change, rapid urbanization, and scarcity of water and energy, the study of environmental fluid dynamics becomes increasingly relevant. This volume is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and policymakers working to better understand the fundamentals of environmental motions and how they affect and are influenced by anthropogenic activities.

Download or read book Performance Based Building Design 1 written by Hugo S. L. Hens and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-10-07 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So wenig wie die Bauphysik standen Energieeffizienz und Gebäudeperformance vor der Energiekrise der 1970er Jahre bei der Planung von Gebäuden auf der Tagesordnung. Mit der wachsenden Notwendigkeit der Energieeinsparung stieg aber das Interesse an der ganzheitlichen Gebäudeplanung. Das zweibändige Werk stellt die ganzheitliche Gebäudebetrachtung und seine "Performance", getragen von der Anwendung bauphysikalischer Zusammenhänge, in der Planung und Ausführung dar. Der Begriff "Gebäudeperformance" meint hier alle Gebäude bezogenen physikalischen Eigenschaften, die im Entwurfsprozess planbar und während des Bauprozesses und im Betrieb kontrollierbar sind. Der Begriff "planbar" erfordert Berechnungsmodelle und -verfahren für die Bemessung und Auslegung, während "kontrollierbar" den Einsatz von Messtechnik und Vergleichsanalysen erfordert. Dieser erste von zwei Bänden stellt die ganzheitliche Gebäudebetrachtung, getragen von der Anwendung bauphysikalischer Zusammenhänge, in der Planung und Ausführung dar. Einem Überblick über die wesentlichen Materialien für Wärmedämmung, Abdichtung, Luftdichtigkeit und Feuchteschutz sowie Erläuterungen über Fugen folgt eine ausführliche Darstellung der Hochbaukonstruktionen, beginnend bei der Baugrube. Anschließend werden Gründungen, erdberührte und aufsteigende Bauteile, übliche Lastabtragungs- und Deckensysteme bis hin zu massiven Außenwänden mit außenseitiger oder Innendämmung und zweischaligen Wänden behandelt. Dabei folgen die meisten Kapitel der Systematik: Überblick, allgemeine Anforderungen, Planung, Ausführung. Das Werk bietet sowohl für Studenten der Architektur und des Bauingenieurwesens umfassendes Rüstzeug für die Bewältigung von Hochbaukonstruktionen, als auch den in der Praxis tätigen Bauingenieuren ein Nachschlagewerk zur Auffrischung des Wissens. Das Buch setzt gründliche Kenntnisse der Bauphysik sowie Grundkenntnisse in Tragwerksplanung, Baustoffkunde und Baukonstruktionen voraus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buildings influence people. They account for one third of energy consumption across the globe and represent an annual capital expenditure of 7%-10% of GNP in industrialized countries. Their lifetime operation costs can exceed capital investment. Building Engineering aims to make buildings more efficient, safe and economical. One branch of this discipline, Building Physics/Science, has gained prominence, with a heightened awareness of such phenomena as sick buildings, the energy crisis and sustainability, and considering the performance of buildings in terms of climatic loads and indoor conditions. The book reflects the advanced level and high quality of research which Building Engineering, and Building Physics/Science in particular, have reached at the beginning of the twenty-first century. It will be a valuable resource to: engineers, architects, building scientists, consultants on the building envelope, researchers and graduate students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One in three homes, on average, suffer from excessive dampness and mould proliferation, with significant health and economic impacts. The combination of new construction methodologies, stricter airtightness requirements and the changing social and cultural context that influences the way we live inside buildings has created unprecedented challenges for the built environment. In modifying indoor and outdoor environments and the building envelopes that serve as a filter between the two, we are changing the physical parameters of the ways in which buildings behave and respond to climatic stimuli. Understanding and predicting the way in which buildings and moisture may interact should be an important step in the design process, aiming to minimise possible negative long-term consequences. Understanding and predicting the way in which buildings and moisture may interact is, today more than ever, essential yet difficult, as the experience of the past has lost its applicability. Moisture-related issues never have a simple solution, since they involve multiple factors, including design, construction, maintenance, materials, climate and occupation pattern. Thus, while the topic is attracting growing attention among researchers, designers and practitioners, the pace with which actual change is occurring is still too slow. Moisture and Buildings provides a critical overview of current research, knowledge and policy frameworks, and presents a comprehensive analysis of the implications of moisture and the importance of accounting for it during the design process. It responds to the urgent need for a systematic organization of the existing knowledge to identify research gaps and provide directions for future developments. The ultimate goal is to increase awareness of the multifaceted implications of hygrothermal phenomena and promote integrated design processes that lead to healthier and more durable constructions. Presents advanced knowledge on hygrothermal processes and their interaction with buildings Integrates the three key areas of moisture transport and its impact on buildings, including durability, human health and comfort Considers the most useful computational tools for assessing moisture and building interactions Includes a section on the main European, American and Australian building codes Explains the risks of mold growth to human health, including growth models to assessment methods
