... internal temperatures. For example if the outside temperature fluctuates between 10 and 40 oC and the inside temperature fluctuates between 18 and 21 oC then the external change is 30K (Kelvin) and the internal change is 3K. The relationship of Amplitude Dampening in this instance is therefore 10 (= ...

Underfloor heating

Underfloor heating and cooling is a form of central heating and cooling which achieves indoor climate control for thermal comfort using conduction, radiation and convection. The terms radiant heating and radiant cooling are commonly used to describe this approach because radiation is responsible for a significant portion of the resulting thermal comfort but this usage is technically correct only when radiation composes more than 50% of the heat exchange between the floor and the rest of the space.
