Information

Function computing the thermal bridges value G (W/K)

Hypothesis and equations

This function allows the calculation of losses due to thermal bridges (in W/K).

As input, the function requires vectors containing:

• The lengths associated with linear losses (per unit length) located in the records Geometry.
• Loss coefficients k values (in W/m.K) and weighting coefficients tau located in the records BuildingData and characterizing thermal regulations.
