Interior insulation retrofit of a historical brick wall using vacuum insulation panels: Hygrothermal numerical simulations and laboratory investigations
Johansson, Pär; Geving, Stig; Hagentoft, Carl-Eric; Jelle, Bjørn Petter; Rognvik, Egil; Kalagasidis, Angela Sasic; Time, Berit (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Old listed buildings need to be retrofitted to reduce the energy use for heating. The possible thickness of the insulation layer is limited by the existing construction. Vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) require less thickness ... -
Klima 2050 - Hva skal vi gjøre?
Sivertsen, Edvard; Time, Berit; Kvande, Tore (Others, 2016)Den femte og siste rapporten fra FNs klimapanel er tydeligere enn noen gang på at det meste av den globale oppvarmingen som er observert i løpet av de siste 50 årene, skyldes menneskelig aktivitet, og at menneskeskapte ... -
