Abstract

Fibrous materials are characterized by good thermal properties, but are susceptible to air filtration. Effective air and wind protection of the building envelope eliminate the problem of air penetration of fibrous materials, but there are still many buildings where this protection has not been applied. Authors investigated the effect of moisture content on the air permeability of chosen loose fibrous materials: mineral wool, wood wool and cellulose fibers. The presented results may be used to simulate and calculate heat loses in existing buildings.
