EPBD Unit For The Study Of  Energy Performance  Of A Building Envelope Refrigeration Training Equipment Educational Equipment

This equipment has been designed expressly for educational purposes and it enables to see some basic aspects of energy certifi er’s work first-hand.
TRAINING PROGRAM
• Using Fourier’s heat equation to describe the heat transfer through the walls of a building envelope
• Unidirectional and bidirectional heat flows, thermal bridges
• Heat conductivity of materials
• Insulating and conducting materials
• Opaque surfaces and glazed surfaces
• Experimental determination of transmittance and of conductance of a wall according to the indications of the standard on in-situ testing
• Experimental comparison of performance of different insulating materials
• Thermal emissivity of building materials
• Thermography as method for determining the continuity of thermal insulation in a building and the presence of thermal or humidity bridges that can reduce the thermal performance of the same building
