Description
This paper proposes a method for estimating insulation effectiveness and heat losses from slab-on-ground floors in New Zealand. It also includes a method for estimating the seasonal swing in heat flow through slab-on-ground floors. The method has been developed from results of a four-year measurement study of two floors in the Wellington region as well as from other available measurements
