GBE Decrement Delay Factor Equation
About:


Decrement delay FU : to give a decrement delay (d) of X hours (defined by the user) for 1 m² surface Number Units Source Choose this method not the next one
Property 2: Decrement delay (d), Approach a: Specific Heat Value = Wh/kg.K m
Needed data DL Design Life of Building 50 Years Default For Life Cycle Assessment
Needed data CLE Component Life Expectancy/Replacement period 50 Years Default or PDS For Life Cycle Assessment
Needed data Material LookUpTable Use with look up tables
Needed data 1 e thickness of material layer 0.3 m PDS For Performance
Needed data 2 ρ Rhô (volumic mass) [density] 700 kg/m3 PDS
Default data 3 S surface area of wall considered 1 Default For Life Cycle Assessment
Needed data 4 λ thermal conductivity 1 W/m.K PDS Be careful with units
Needed data (option 1) 6 c Specific heat value 0.58 Wh/kg.K PDS See Converter below if units are: J.kg/K
Defined by User 7 d Decrement delay (Hours) 12 Hours LookUpTable Could this be LUT/DDL with options?
Formulas d=1,38*e*√1/a d Decrement delay (Hours) 0.02055 Hours
Formulas a=λ/p*C a diffusivity
Formulas e=d/1.38*√(p*C/λ) e thickness of material layer
Formulas Q=e*S*ρ Q Quantity
Calculation Q=(d/1.38*√(p*C/λ))*S*p*(DL/CLE) Q Quantity 302 kg Calculated For Life Cycle Assessment; Checked
Converter
Input from: Product Data Sheets Result
Specific Heat Value
from J/kg.K to Wh/kg.K
2100 J/kg.K = 0.583333333 Wh/kg.K
