Abstract

The thermal flux coming into an air-conditioned space through a [`]Roof Radiation Trap System' has been evaluated. Numerical calculations have been performed corresponding to the meteorological data on 11 January at Boulder, Colorado (USA), a harsh North American winter day. Subsequent parametric studies using the simulation indicated that the critical parameters were the width of the air gap and that of the concrete roof through which the thermal flux passes into the room.
