Abdoulaye Compaoré, Boureima Dianda, Gilbert Nana, D. Joseph Bathiebo, Belkacem Zeghmati, Xavier Chesneau & Stéphane Abide · Physical Science International Journal · 2018

A numerical modeling of heat transfer in a habitat whose walls are in local materials (compressed earth blocks) is presented. The transfer equations based on the nodal method are solved by an implicit finite difference method and the Gauss algorithm coupled to an iterative proced...
