An improved method to evaluate indoor microclimatic data: case study of a book archive in a hot and humid climate

Indoor microclimatic parameters are recurrently used to monitor building performance for indoor environmental quality appraisal. Inputs for such assessment come from time-series of microclimatic parameters taken with array of sensors and data loggers. Existing methods analyse the data using averages...
