Sources for material libraries: Thermo-Physical-Optical properties of generic materials found in India

1 post / 0 new

Hi,

Centre for Advanced Research in Building Science and Energy (CARBSE) at CEPT
University has developed a wall and roof construction thermal transmittance
or thermal Conductance (U - Factor) calculator. Thermal properties of
materials used by the tool are derived by extensive characterization of
generic construction materials available in various parts of India. Majority
glass products available in India is also characterised, data of such glass
products are available in IGDB. Values have been derived by accredited lab

This is an online tool, to be accessed freely over internet. The values
derived by the tool are specific for the city. Thermal properties of
materials used by the tool are derived by extensive characterization of
generic construction materials available in various parts of India.

The tool can be useful for selection of building material, construction, for
building energy modelling and analysis as well as for code compliance.

For more information please contact us, we will be happy to extend database
of material as well.

Currently, we are in process of characterising wall and window assemblies.
