Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyze different potential designs for control of heat loss through the ground beneath a heated floor within a livestock building. Consideration is given to amount and location of insulation as well as to the effect of soil properties. Transient behavior is studied by the use of a finite element heat transfer program. Finite element analysis is shown to be a valuable, easy-to-use design tool in the analysis of heated floors.
