Effects of type of masonry material and surface absorptivity to solar radiation on critical thermal mass thickness in … insulated building walls are investigated for a fixed wall nominal thermal resistance (Rn-value). The concepts of “thermal-mass … energy-savings potential” (Δ) and “critical thermal mass thickness” (Lmas,cr), developed in a previous study, are utilized to …
