.Buildings.HeatTransfer.Windows.BaseClasses.convectionHorizontalCavity

Information

Function for convective heat transfer in horizontal window cavity. The computation is according to TARCOG 2006, except that this implementation computes the convection coefficient as a function that is differentiable in the temperatures.
