Summary of Practice4.1 Heat flux transducers are installed on or within abuilding envelope component in conjunction with temperaturetransducers, as required

16、. Heat flux through a surface is influ-enced by temperature gradients, thermal conductance, heatcapacity, density and geometry of the test section, and byconvective and radiative coefficients. The resultant heat fluxesare determined by multiplying a conversion factor S of the HFTby its electrical ou

17、tput. The S values shall have been obtainedaccording to Practice C 1130.5. Significance and Use5.1 Traditionally, HFTs have been incorporated into labora-tory testing devices, such as the heat flow meter apparatus (TestMethod C 518), that employ controlled temperatures and heatflow paths to effect a

18、 thermal measurement. The application ofheat flux transducers and temperature transducers to buildingcomponents in situ can produce quantitative information aboutbuilding thermal performance that reflects the existing proper-ties of the building under actual thermal conditions. Theliterature contain

19、s a sample of reports on how these measure-ments have been used (1-8).35.2 The major advantage of this practice is the potentialsimplicity and ease of application of the sensors. To avoidspurious information, users of HFTs shall: (1) employ anappropriate S,(2) mask the sensors properly, (3) accommod

20、atethe time constants of the sensors and the building components,and (4) account for possible distortions of any heat flow pathsattributable to the nature of the building construction or thelocation, size, and thermal resistance of the transducers.5.3 The user of HFTs and TTs for measurements on bui

21、ld-ings shall understand principles of heat flux in buildingcomponents and have competence to accommodate the follow-ing:5.3.1 Choose sensor sites using building plans, specifica-tions and thermography to determine that the measurementrepresents the required conditions.5.3.2 A single HFT site is not

22、 representative of a buildingcomponent. The measurement at an HFT site represents theconditions at the sensing location of the HFT. Use thermogra-phy appropriately to identify average and extreme conditionsand large surface areas for integration. Use multiple sensorsites to assess overall performanc

23、e of a building component.5.3.3 A given HFT calibration is not applicable for allmeasurements. The HFT disturbs heat flow at the measurementsite in a manner unique to the surrounding materials (9, 10);this affects the conversion constant, S, to be used. The usershall take into account the conditions

24、 of measurement asoutlined in 7.1.1. In extreme cases, the sensor is the mostsignificant thermal feature at the location where it has beenplaced, for example, on a sheet metal component. In such acase, meaningful measurements are difficult to achieve. Theuser shall confirm the conversion factor, S,

25、prior to use of theHFT to avoid calibration errors. See Section 7.5.3.4 The user shall be prepared to accommodate non-steady-state thermal conditions in employing the measurementtechnique described in this practice. This requires obtainingdata over long periods, perhaps several days, depending on th

26、etype of building component and on temperature changes.5.3.5 Heat flux has a component parallel to the plane of theHFT. The user shall be able to minimize or accommodate thisfactor.6. Apparatus6.1 Essential equipment for measuring heat flux and tem-perature includes the following:6.1.1 Heat Flux Tra

27、nsducerA rigid or flexible device (seeAppendix X2) in a durable housing, composed of a thermopile(or equivalent) for sensing the temperature difference across athin thermal resistive layer, which produces a voltage outputthat is a function of the corresponding heat flux and thegeometry and material

28、properties of the HFT.NOTE 1All calibrations relating output voltage to heat flux shallconform to Practice C 1130 and pertain to the measurement at hand.Manufacturers calibrations supplied with HFTs often do not conformwith Practice C 1130. Obtain the HFT conversion factor as described inSection 8 o

29、f Practice C 1130.6.1.2 Temperature TransducerA thermocouple, resistancethermal device (RTD), or thermistor for measuring tempera-tures on or within the construction, or for measuring airtemperatures. Some HFTs incorporate thermocouples.6.1.3 RecorderAn instrument that reads sensor outputvoltage and

30、 records either the voltage, heat flux, or temperaturevalues calculated from appropriate formulas, with durableoutput (for example, magnetic tape, magnetic disk, punch tape,printer, or plotter).6.1.4 Attachment MaterialsPressure-sensitive tape, adhe-sive, or other means for holding heat flux and tem

31、peraturetransducers in place on the test surface or within the construc-tion.6.1.5 Thermal Contact MaterialsGel toothpaste, heat sinkgrease, petroleum jelly, or other means to improve thermalcontact between an irregular surface and a smooth HFT.6.1.6 Absorptance and Emittance Control SuppliesCoating

32、s or sheet material to match the radiative absorptanceand emittance of the sensor with that of the surroundingsurfaces.7. HFT Signal Conversion7.1 The conversion factor (S) is a function of the HFTdesign and the thermal environment surrounding the HFT (8,9).Adifference between thermal conductivities

33、 of the HFT andits surroundings causes it to act either as a partial blockade orconduit for heat flux. Radiative heat passes into the HFT at adifferent rate than it does into the surrounding surface, depend-ing on the mismatch between the absorptivities of HFT andsurface. The presence of air moving

34、across an HFT can changethe conductance of the air film at the HFT and cause the heatflux through the HFT to differ from that through the surround-ing surface.3The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to the list of references at the end ofthis practice.C 1046 95 (2007)27.1.1 Determine S according

35、to the procedure outlined inPractice C 1130, as appropriate to the conditions of use, that is,surface-mounted or embedded and surrounded by materialsthat will be present.7.2 Confirm that the time constant of the HFT is much lessthan the time constant of the building component to bemeasured if the te

36、mperatures throughout the HFT and theconstruction will not be steady state. If the mass of an HFT ofa certain area is less than one fiftieth of the mass of the samearea of building component, then its time constant is smallenough. If not, then estimate the thicknesses and thermaldiffusivities of the

37、 constituent layers of the HFT and thebuilding component, using Appendix X1 or other recognizedtechnique, to determine whether the time constant of the HFTis less than one fiftieth of that of the components timeconstant.8. Selection of Sensor Sites8.1 The user shall choose a place in the constructio

38、n forsiting the HFTs where one-dimensional heat flow perpendicu-lar to the exterior surfaces occurs, unless the user is prepared todeal with multidimensional heat flow in the analysis of thedata.NOTE 2For example, a sensor site in the center of a fully insulatedstud cavity represents heat flow perpe

39、ndicular to the wall surface, whereasa location near a stud or blocking does not. A wall incorporating concretemasonry units has significant multidimensional heat flow through theconcrete webs and possible air convection cells in the block cores.(Experience indicates, however, that the face of a con

40、crete masonry unitdistributes heat flux sufficiently that HFT placement is insensitive tolocation on the block.) Similarly, an empty stud cavity has convection asa potential lateral heat flow mechanism and a masonry or stone wall hasvertical heat conduction near the ground level. Air leakage can als

41、o be asource of multidimensional heat flow.8.2 Do not place the HFTs where they contribute more than1 % additional resistance to the construction subject to thermalmeasurement, unless the thermal properties of the HFTs arewell known and the analysis technique is appropriate.8.3 Do not place HFTs on

42、surfaces with high lateral con-ductance, unless the S has been confirmed for the precisecondition.8.4 Install HFTs either on an indoor surface of the compo-nent if the construction is complete or within a buildingcomponent when the component is being constructed andretrieval is not required. Infrare

43、d thermography is requiredwhen the internal configuration of the component is poorlyknown. Seek perpendicular flow, and avoid unforeseen thermalanomalies.8.5 Use infrared thermography to determine the character-istics of candidate sensor sites on the building component whenthe internal configuration

44、 of the component is poorly known(see Practices C 1060 and C 1153).NOTE 3Close visual inspection of a stud wall can often reveal thelocations of framing members when there are slight imperfections abovenailheads, but thermography can reveal whether or not there is unexpectedcross blocking, air leaka

45、ge, or convection owing to missing, incorrectlyapplied, or shifted insulation.NOTE 4Thermographic instruments produce a two-dimensional im-age of a surface by measuring thermal radiation emanating from thatsurface. A temperature gradient on the surface is seen as a variation incontrast or in pseudoc

46、olor on a viewer screen. If the radiation gradients arecaused by heat transfer variations in the wall because of thermalanomalies, these anomalies and their locations are made visible. Certainthermographic patterns can be recognized as framing, air leakage, orconvection.8.6 Determine whether to depl

47、oy sensors in a line or insome other arrangement, based on knowledge of the compo-nents internal configuration. Note that a wall with suspectedinternal convection requires, at a minimum, sensors at the top,bottom, and center of the suspected convective area.9. Test Procedures9.1 Sensor Site Selectio

48、nSelect appropriate sensor sitesaccording to Section 8. The HFT shall cover a region ofuniform heat flux on the chosen site. If the HFT covers a regionwith significantly nonuniform heat flux, then demonstrate thatthe HFT correctly averages the input it receives.9.2 Permanent Sensor Installation:9.2.

49、1 Sensors built into the construction offer more reliableresults than sensors mounted on an exterior surface, becausethey are usually protected from radiant heat sources andconvection, which may affect the sensor differently than thesurrounding building material. The measurement is also likelyto have less variance.9.2.2 Tape or glue the HFTs to a smooth surface within theconstruction to ensure good thermal contact.9.2.3 Position temperature transducers on and within theconstruction, as required, to obtain temperature gradientsacross its thickness.
