Building Physics nerds - can anyone point me to the fundamental research that underpins the surface thermal resistance used in U-value, thermal bridge and moisture risk calcs/simulations please? Wondering where that magic 0.13 comes from, and when it might be wrong.
When the design was shown I called Heatherwick’s building on the High Line “an exercise in designing a window to maximize heat loss and air leakage.” The reality is worse. treehugger.com/green-archite…

This is one of the best arguments against the poison of divide and rule you will ever watch.
😎 video of section through a #strawbale in BaleHaus at Bath wall. Outside left, inside right. Temp varies from 10° to 30°C. It shows the thermal lag that provides the amazingly stable internal temp. External heat & cooling loads have no affect on internal surface. #energy
Photographs portray the quiet before the storm, just a few hours before the beginning of the fourth Saturday of consecutive riots on 8 December #Paris#GiletsJaunesow.ly/Ds9t30mZWDC
Request:
Does anyone have any reliable generic capital/running cost comparison figures for the main technologies that qualify for the Renewable Heat Incentive (large domestic)?
