3、ings under attics containing radiant barriers by useof a computer program. The computer program included as anadjunct to this practice provides a calculational procedure forestimating the heat loss or gain through the ceiling under anattic containing a truss or rafter mounted radiant barrier. Thepro

Thisprocedure utilizes hour-by-hour weather data to estimate thehour-by-hour ceiling heat flows. The interior of the housebelow the ceiling is assumed to be maintained at a consta

5、nttemperature. At present, the procedure is applicable to sloped-roof attics with rectangular floor plans having an unshadedgabled roof and a horizontal ceiling. It is not applicable tostructures with flat roofs, vaulted ceilings, or cathedral ceilings.The calculational accuracy also is limited by t

11、 the thermal response factors of thesolid materials surrounding the attic. Input to this programwould consist of the thermal conductivity, specific heat,density, and thickness of each layer, or the thermal resistance ofthe layer if it has negligible density, and the fraction of thecross-sectional ar

19、 clearnessnumber, the computer program calculates the inside andoutside temperatures of the attic envelope and the temperatureof the air inside the attic. Using these temperatures, theprogram calculates the heat flux through the ceiling.4.2.4 OutputThe hourly heat flux through the ceiling iswritten

20、to a file which can be used for further processing, suchas seasonal or annual heat gains or losses.5. Significance and Use5.1 Manufacturers of radiant barriers express the perfor-mance of their products in terms of the total hemisphericalemittance. The purpose of a radiant barrier is to decrease the

21、radiation heat transfer across the attic air space, and hence, todecrease the heat loss or gain through the ceiling below theattic. The amount of decrease in heat flow will depend upon anumber of factors, such as weather conditions, amount of massor reflective insulation in the attic, solar absorpta

22、nce of theroof, geometry of the attic and roof, and amount and type ofattic ventilation. Because of the infinite combinations of thesefactors, it is not practical to publish data for each possible case.5.2 The calculation of heat loss or gain of a systemcontaining radiant barriers is mathematically

23、complex, andbecause of the iterative nature of the method, it is best handledby computers.5.3 Computers are now widely available to most producersand consumers of radiant barriers to permit the use of thispractice.5.4 The user of this practice may wish to modify the datainput to represent accurately

24、 the structure. The computerprogram also may be modified to meet individual needs. Also,additional calculations may be desired, for example, to sum thehourly heat flows in some fashion to obtain estimates ofseasonal or annual energy usages. This might be done using thehourly data as inputs to a whol

25、e-house model, and by choosinghouse balance points to use as cutoff points in the summations.6. Method of Calculation6.1 Approach:6.1.1 This calculation of heat loss or gain requires that thefollowing be known:6.1.1.1 The thermal conductivity, specific heat, and densityof the construction materials

26、(that is, insulation, plywood,roofing materials, sheathing, gypsum board);6.1.1.2 The total hemispherical emittance of all materialsfacing the attic air space;6.1.1.3 The solar absorptance of the exterior surfaces of theattic (that is, the roof and gables);6.1.1.4 The geometry of the attic;6.1.1.5 T

27、he moisture permeance and storage properties ofthe materials facing the attic space; and6.1.1.6 The weather conditions.6.1.2 The solution is a computer procedure that estimatestemperatures of both sides of the components of the atticenvelope and the temperature of the air in the attic space, usesthe

28、se estimates of temperatures to refine estimates of convec-tion and radiation heat transfer coefficients, reestimates thetemperatures using the new heat transfer coefficients, continuesiterating on the temperatures and heat transfer coefficients untilconvergence is reached, and uses the last estimat

29、es of tempera-tures to calculate the heat gain or loss through the ceiling. Thisprocedure is repeated for each hour of the simulation period(typically a full year).6.2 Development of EquationsThe model that is the basisfor this practice is based on the model developed by B. Peavy(3), which was later

30、 extended by Wilkes (4-6). The sketch of anattic given in Fig. 1 shows the various heat transfer mecha-nisms that occur within an attic. Although the sketch showsventilation occurring at soffit and ridge vents, the location ofthe vents may be at other locations, such as at the gables. Themodel treat

31、s all of these phenomena through a system of heatbalance equations at the interior and exterior surfaces of theceiling, roof sections, and gables, as well as a heat balance onthe air mass within the attic. To handle the case of raisedtrusses, short vertical walls at the eaves also are included. Each

32、of the surfaces is assumed to be isothermal; thus, for an atticconsisting of a ceiling, two roof sections, two gables, twovertical eave sections, and one air space, a total of 15 heatbalance equations is used.6.3 EquationsConduction:6.3.1 The model developed here utilizes the thermal re-sponse facto

33、r method to analyze conduction through buildingFIG. 1 Schematic of Residential Attic Showing Heat TransferPhenomenaC1340042envelope sections. The thermal response factor method wasdeveloped by Mitalas and Arseneault (1) and was extended byKusuda (2). The method is based on an exact analyticalsolutio

34、n of the heat conduction equation for one-dimensionalheat flow through a multilayer slab having temperature-independent thermal properties. The only approximation is thatthe surface temperatures are taken to vary linearly with timebetween time steps. For analysis of buildings, the time step isnormal

35、ly taken to be 1 h. The response factor equations relatethe heat fluxes at the surfaces of the slab to the present andprevious temperatures at the two surfaces. The equations are:QI 5(j50Z8 j! TISj! 2 TR! 2(j50Y8j! TOSj! 2 TR! (1)QO 5(j50Y8 j! TISj! 2 TR! 2(j50X8j! TOSj! 2 TR! (2)where:QI = heat flu

37、rsprevious to present time, F,X8 (j), Y8 (j), Z8(j) = response factors, Btu/hft2F, andTR = reference temperature, F.6.3.2 The response factors are determined from a sequenceof calculations that involve the thermal diffusivity, thermalconductivity, specific heat, density, and thickness of each of the

38、layers in the multilayer slab. An efficient computer program forcalculating the response factors has been developed by GeorgeWalton of the National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST) (7).6.3.2.1 The efficiency of the response factor calculationscan be increased by making use of the fact tha

39、t after a sufficientnumber of terms, the ratio of two consecutive response factorsbecomes constant. This is expressed by:X8 j 1 1!X8 j!5Y8 j 1 1!Y8 j!5Z8 j 1 1!Z8 j!5 CR for j $ N (3)CR = the common ratio, andN = a sufficiently large number.6.3.2.2 The common ratio is used to define a new set offunc

40、tions, called the first order conduction transfer functions orsimply the conduction transfer functions, X(j), Y(j), and Z(j),which are given by:X0! 5 X8 0! (4)Y0! 5 Y8 0! (5)Z0! 5 Z8 0!

TISj! 2 TR!2(j50NYj! TOSj! 2 TR! 1 CR QI8 (13)QO 5(j50NYj! TISj! 2 TR!2(j50NXj! TOSj! 2 TR! 1 CR QO8 (14)where:Q

42、I8 = heat flux at inside surface at previous time step,QO8 = heat flux at outside surface at previous time step,andN = number of significant conduction transfer functions.6.3.2.4 When parallel heat flow paths occur in an envelopecomponent, separate response factors for each path may beneeded. If the

43、 boundary temperatures of the two paths may beassumed to be equal, however, then the response factors maybe added together as:X8 5 A1X811 A2X82(15)where:A1,A2= area fractions forpaths 1 and 2, and(X81,X82), (Y81,Y82) and (Z81,Z82) = the response fac-tors for paths 1and 2.Parallel conduction transfer

44、 functions may be calculatedfrom these parallel response factors, provided that the commonratio for the path with the largest number of significant terms isused.6.3.2.5 The original derivation of the response factor tech-nique relied upon the assumption of temperature-independentthermal properties.

45、An approximate method has been devel-oped to account for the temperature dependence of the thermalproperties (5). The thermal transmission coefficient of thecomponent is taken to vary linearly with temperature as:U 5 UTR1 1 bT 2 TR!# (16)C1340043The conduction transfer function equations then become
