In situ analysis of energetic performance for a precast concrete panel in an industrial building

Concrete precast panels, often used in industrial building, are currently used, in Italy and worldwide, also for application in commercial building sector and so this claims for their better energetic and thermal performances to ensure energy savings and well-being, achieving the function of separating the controlled indoor environment from the uncontrolled outdoor environment. Starting from an actual panel used in an industrial building application, that is from the real conditions of operation, it was set-up an experimental station of measure in which the main parameters, both from the energy point of view that of the heat transfer, were monitored and acquired during the winter period; external conditions (temperature, humidity, solar radiation), panel parameters (heat flux, surface temperatures) and internal conditions (temperature, humidity) has been collected and then analysed.
