Abstract

Abstract This research aims at comparing the thermal performance of walls made from traditional and alternative building materials. The experimental study involves five types of walls were studied based on perforated ceramic bricks and a mixture of clay, sand with various straw proportions. Specialized software and the finite element method (FEA) were employed for modelling of the thermal processes and their visualization for the different types of walls. A simulation modelling algorithm was developed. The models developed show very good convergence of the results and provide for subsequent design and thermal calculation of constructions made by environmentally friendly materials.
