This paper presents the newly developed study, methodology and assessment of the hygrothermal performance of a historic building wall retrofitted with three different internal insulation technologies, without a vapour barrier. It aims at assessing any possible condensation problems at the …
The most commonly used interventions for energy requalification of buildings aim to increase the thermal resistance of the perimeter walls and ceiling and the efficiency of the HVAC system. Windows replacement is also usually foreseen. Moreover, the energy saving strategies …
Energy retro-commissioning of historical buildings is an important challenge that implies both historic-artistic and technological aspects concerning the improvement in energy efficiency and comfort. A critical analysis of each possibility is essential in order to preserve the balance between efficiency …
