Study on Summer Air Temperature and Water Vapor Concentration of Wooden and Concrete Houses in Nepal

摘要

In this study, we have investigated the thermal environmentof wooden and concrete houses of the sub-tropical region insummer. The results are as follows.1. The 80% cumulative frequency of indoor air temperaturefor wooden house is 30.6°C which is 4.4°C lower than thatof concrete house.
