• Effects of different surface heat transfer coefficients on predicted heating and cooling loads towards sustainable building design 

      Wu, Yanwen; Jian, Wenna; Yang, Liu; Zhang, Tengyue; Liu, Yan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The transfer of surface heat between a building and the outdoor environment is the energy transfer channel and it is important for the energy efficiency of buildings. Early stage building design is a critical stage and it ...
    • Hygrothermal Properties of Compressed Earthen Bricks 

      Zhang, Lei; Yang, Liu; Jelle, Bjørn Petter; Wang, Yu; Gustavsen, Arild (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The present study investigates the relationship between bulk density and hygrothermal behaviour of compressed earthen bricks. The experimental results show that the thermal conductivity linearly increases from 0.5228 W/(m ...
    • Thermal Conductivity of Cement Stabilized Earth Blocks 

      Zhang, Lei; Gustavsen, Arild; Jelle, Bjørn Petter; Yang, Liu; Gao, Tao; Wang, Yu (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      The present study examines the effect of bulk density and cement content on the thermal conductivity of cement stabilized earth blocks (CSEB). The experimental results show that the thermal conductivity increases as a ...
