Developing an alternative method to determine the heat transfer coefficients of dwellings in warmer climates (2022)
Thesis
Chard, E. (2022). Developing an alternative method to determine the heat transfer coefficients of dwellings in warmer climates. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Whole house heat loss test methods are used to determine the heat transfer coefficient (HTC) of dwellings. Having reliable methods of measuring as-built performance makes it possible to improve the energy efficiency of dwellings, aiding in the global...

The thermal energy performance of domestic dwellings in the UK (2016)
Thesis
Fitton, R. The thermal energy performance of domestic dwellings in the UK. (Thesis). University of Salford

The central contribution of this work is concerned with the understanding of the real performance of domestic retrofit measures in terms of whole house energy efficiency. The researcher has undertaken studies in a whole house test facility in a clima... Read More about The thermal energy performance of domestic dwellings in the UK.
