That is, to keep the room cool in summer and warm in winter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In order to reduce the demand of heating in winter and refrigeration in summer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In order to prevent the condensation of moisture on interior walls, ceilings, windows, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In order to reduce the risk of water-freezing in case of pipes and heat loss in case of hot water system.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h28.3.2\">28.3.2 Causes for Heat Transfer<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Following are the factors which contribute for transfer of heat:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Value of thermal insulation of the exterior shell (e.g., external walls, roofs, etc.).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Difference in temperature between the outside and the inside.

Evidently for greater area the heat transfer shall be more.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Surface areas of external windows and doors. For example, the heat transfer of a glazed window is about three times more than a typical wall construction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rate of air movement through any cavities in the enclosing structure. For example, air spaces through the roof or below a suspended floor may cause considerable heat transference.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>28.3.2 Causes for Heat Transfer Following are the factors which contribute for transfer of heat:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6092,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[652],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6143","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-services-in-building"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/buildings.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6143"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6143\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6144,"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6143\/revisions\/6144"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6092"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/workhouse.sweetdishy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
