یک رویکرد منطقی به هماهنگ سازی خواص حرارتی مصالح ساختمانی

The Energy System Research Unit at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow was contracted by the Building Research Establishment to review existing datasets of thermo-physical properties of building materials and devise vetting and conflation mechanisms. The UK Chartered Institute of Building Service Engineers subsequently commissioned a project to extract a sub-set of these data for inclusion in Guide A, Section 3. This paper reports the project process and outcome. Specifically, it describes the source of existing data, comments on the robustness of the underlying test procedures and presents a new approach to data classification and conflation.
