The thermal and hygrothermal simulations carried out with HTflux reveal a problematic configuration of the interior insulation and vapour barrier. The thermal simulation already shows that the vapor barrier is installed at a location having a too low temperature. A more precise inspection using our unique Glaser-2d simulation clearly demonstrates the condensation at the surface of the vapour barrier.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_102\" style=\"width: 899px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.htflux.com\/de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/Fensteranschluss-Dampfbremse-Objekte.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-102\" class=\"size-full wp-image-102 \" src=\"http:\/\/www.htflux.com\/de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/Fensteranschluss-Dampfbremse-Objekte.jpg\" alt=\"Object view -
