In-situ temperature monitoring of an internal insulated wall in a historic building

Abstract

The subject of the contribution is the evaluation of in-situ monitoring of an internally insulated wall in a historical building in Levoča. The paper compares the development of surface temperatures, temperatures under the thermal insulation and temperatures in the masonry at a depth of 100 mm when using calcium silicate board and phenolic foam. The temperatures of the insulated walls are compared with the reference temperatures of the uninsulated wall. As part of the measurements, the parameters of the internal environment are also monitored. The aim of the contribution is to quantify the effect of internal insulation on the development of temperatures in the perimeter structure and its effect on the quality of the internal environment.
