Aha i see! Thank you for the tip

You do not have to get rid of them. The first spike is depending on the initial moisture of your construction. In the first year/ years the initial moisture is being redistributed, your construction tries to come to its equilibrium.

I see, but since the construction is already assumed ...

Hello!

We are currently working on our bachelor thesis and we are investegating the moisture content inside a church wall. The purpose is to compare the moisture content within the wall with the current climate to a new indoor climate where we will set the min temp to 10 degrees etc. We have some ...

no, it does not matter if you use a material as one layer or split in into different layers. The sum of the thickness has to be the original thickness of the layer.

Alright, thank you!

Hi!

We have a medieval wall which is made up with stone and mortar. The wall is 1,4m thick and the ratio between mortar and stone is estimated. Would it be any difference in calculateing the wall as one unit supposed to 4 smaller walls? The purpose of the calculation is to see the stabelized the ...

Hi Dorita

One approach is to model a 'sandwich' of stone/mortar/stone. This is described by Joseph Little, and 'validated' using a comparison with Wufi 2D in the following document:

Hello Jesper and Hendric,

in the first step I would use the indoor logger data as indoor conditions. You also can use a sine curve and fit it to logger data. Best would be to set up data for a hole year, because with shorter climate data you can not calculate multiple years to extend the ...

Dear Jesper and Hanric,

please see here, its the same discussion with clinker instead of granite.

The only way in WUFI Pro would be to create a material, which includes granite and joints. Otherwise you could set up the wall in 2D modeling ...

Hi fellow WUFI-users!

We are two students writing our bachlelor thesis about moisture problem in medieval churches. There are several data loggers (Hyrgrotrac) placed in the church which we have gathered information from. So our assignment is to modell the church in WUFI and try different methods ...

Hi fellow WUFI-users!

We examine a medieval Swedish church in our bachelor thesis and are pretty new to WUFI. We are wondering if it is possible to construct a granite wall made up with granite blocks and mortar inbetween, instead of just an massive granite wall. If it is possible, how do we ...
