Original Abstract

The temperature and relative humidity measurement in building physics needs special equipment which is often expensive and not available for young researchers. Several programmable platforms are available. This article describes the low-cost solution of temperature and relative humidity measurement using combined Digital Humidity/Temperature sensors together with Raspberry Pi as the datalogger. Experimental lightweight timber frame wall consist of five sections with various thermal insulations and outdoor coating colors were exposed to the real outdoor boundary climate conditions. The indoor boundary conditions were set as constant. Results of measurement obtained with low cost sensors were compared to values got by commercially available thermocouples for scientific use and to the non-steady HAM simulation in WUFI software.
