Full Description

This paper represents the hygrothermal performance of new lightweight wall assemblies in “passive house technology” in the climate of Central Europe. Several different wall assemblies were developed, simulated, and analyzed with regard to hygrothermal performance and probable durability. The results of the simulations were compared with in-situ measurements, which were carried out at a test house built in South Austria. Due to the agreement of measurement and simulation results, future simulations for different climates in should be possible to analyze the potential transferability of the passive house technology.
