7、performance ofthe whole building. INTRODUCTION Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) is a building material that has been widely used for many years in Europe, especially in Germany and Poland. AACs thermal properties, especially thermal conductivity, are strongly dependent on moisture content. In new b

8、uilding construction with cellular concrete walls, the AAC still contains a considerable amount of water that evaporates over time. However, in whole building energy performance analysis, thermal properties of dry materials are commonly assumed. A hygrothermal model of a whole building is needed tha

9、t takes into account all the physical phenomena affecting the behavior of individual building elements, as well as the whole building energy performance. Some attempts in this direction have been made (FSEC 1992; Karagiozis et al. 1994; Liesen and Pedersen 1999), but they are still based on simplifi

10、ed models of either nonisothermal moisture transport (FSEC 1992) or the whole building mass and energy exchange (Karia- giozis et al. 1994). Hence, for this study, an approximate method, proposed by Gawin and Kosny (2001), that accounts for drying of initial moisture has been applied. Several numeri

11、cal codes simulate the hygrothermal behavior of a building envelope, e.g., WLJFI (Kuenzel 1994), LATENITE (Karagiozis 1993), TRATMO (Kohonen 1984; Salonvaara and Karagiozis 1994), HMTRA (Gawin et al. 1995, 1996; Gawin and Schrefler 1996,2001). HMTRA was selected here because it calculates the latent

12、 heat absorbed and released on the internal and external surfaces of a wall in the moisture drying - vapor condensation processes.

Addition- ally, for comparison, two limiting cases with constant thermal properties, corresponding to initial moisture content (95% RH) and the final hygral state after three years of drying, have been considered (Figure 8). The DOE 2.1E model does not take into account the latent heat associat

26、ed with moisture evaporation and condensation, which could be of importance during the first period of build- ing use when the drying rate of the cellular concrete walls may be considerable (Figure 6a). We estimated the lower and upper limits of additional energy consumption due to changes of the wa

27、ll moisture content and related latent heat effects. To estimate. the lower limit of this energy, the simulation results for the vapor flux on the interior surface ofthe wall were used along with the bound- ASHRAE Transactions: Symposia 801 ary conditions and the results of the simulations presented

28、 in the previous section. This estimation does not take into account energy necessary for evaporation of moisture on the external wall surface and should be considered as a lower limit of the energy demand for this purpose. A part of the energy is supplied by a building heating system, but it is ver

29、y difficult for exact determination. The upper limit of additional energy consumption due to moisture evaporation was estimated using data about the decrease of total moisture content in exterior walls (Figure 6). In this case we assumed that ali moisture, both on the external and internal wall surf

30、aces, is drying at the cost of heat from the indoor. However, the both evaluations still do not take into account all possible additional loads for a house heating system. This is because of the nonstationary and coupled character of the heat and moisture transfer; e.g., evaporation decreases wail s

31、urface temperature, which influ- ences heat exchange in a building, and may increase energy loads for heating. The estimated lower and upper limits of the additional monthly energy consumption, due to the drying process (latent heat) of exterior wails during individual months of the first year of th

32、e analyzed three-year period, are compared in Figure 9 with the gas energy for heating. The negative values indicate condensation of the vapor from the ambient and/or indoor air onto the surfaces of the wall. To estimate the increase of the whole building energy consumption, related to the wall dryi

33、ng, the efficiency of the heating system (assumed to be 77% in the DOE simulations) has been taken into account. This increase of the whole building energy consumption can be estimated as 17.3%-35.2% (the lower and upper limits) for the first month of building use (January) and on average as 4.8%-14

34、.5% for the whole first year. CONCLUSIONS Moisture content in the cellular concrete walls decreased significantly (about 35 kg/m2) during the first three years of exposure to temperate climatic conditions of Warsaw, Poland. The increase of the wall thermal resistance is approximately 26%, as compare

35、d to the initial moist state. The effects of drying are most significant during the first months of normal building use. Our simulations showed that the weather data of TMY can be used in Poland for analyses of the general kinetics of long-lasting hygrothermal processes, but instantaneous values of

36、heat and moisture fluxes at surfaces of building envelopes are best predicted using actual weather conditions. Changes in the thermal resistance during initial drying have notable effect on the building energy consumption. For the analyzed standard two-story residential building located in Warsaw, c

37、onsumption of the gas heating energy was about 2.2% higher in the first year of building use as compared with the third year, assuming that outdoor climatic conditions were the same. However, moisture evaporation from the wall is the source of much more important, additional heat losses; eg, for the
