[TRNSYS-users] Advanced thermal insulation techniques

[David BRADLEY via TRNSYS-users]

Issmail,

   The u value is only one measure of a wall's performance. The other 
significant part is where the mass is located in the wall. Type56's wall 
model takes both into account. The u-value is displayed because it is a 
common measure of wall performance.

kind regards,

  David
