Abstract
In this study, we present a model for analysis of thermal and hygric behavior of thc underground space taking into account coupled heat and moisture transfer in/on the ground. In the model effects of the precipitation and the location of the water table are considered. Using the model, heat and moisture behavior of the underground space under natural condition without heat and moisture supply are analyzed. The results show that 1) effect of moisture in earth ground on room climate are considerable, 2) moisture capacity of surrounding wall must be considered in analysis, because of its considerable effects on moisture variation, 3) to predict room air humidity and moisture condensation, distribution of the moisture flow on surrounding wall must be considered.
