Knowledge of thermo-physical properties of local building materials are necessary for thermal comfort design and construction of residential accommodation. Thermal diffusivity of cement-stabilized laterites were measured under conditions of transien [...]
Ce travail relate l'utilisation du eLearning comme solution de rapprochement entre trois entités universitaires France, Bénin, Roumanie dans le domaine de la métrologie et de la qualité. Les actions sont : formation, mobilités virtuelle et réelle d' [...]
The present work gives the current situation of the methods developed to measure the thermal conductivity of building materials used in Benin, country of western Africa. Modus operandi, basic theories and experimental results of the case of cement mo [...]
Knowledge of thermophysical parameters of local materials of construction has been essential when one considered the fast development of the market of building and especially the need for saving energy while ensuring the thermal comfort in housing. T [...]
Le Bénin ne possède pas des sources de production d’énergie électrique propre à lui-même. Ceci explique sa dépendance énergétique des pays voisins. Pourtant il possède sur sa côte, dans le Golfe de Guinée, une propagation d’un vent quasi permanent et [...]
The swell is one of the main causes of degradation ribs and one of the factors that makes navigation difficult when it tends to be extreme. Wind is one of the main causes of the birth of the waves. In this work it was considered as the main factor, w [...]
Le présent article donne les résultats de recherche d’une étude expérimentale sur les propriétés thermiques du bois Borassus Aéthiopum (palmier rônier) exploité au Bénin. Les propriétés telles que la masse volumique, la chaleur massique spécifique et [...]
The present work aims to study an application of the composites of husks of rice in building. This study consisted in formulating a set of composites of husks of rice experimentally. Comparing with dosage made of cement usually adopted for the blocks [...]
In the present work, a possibility of recycling sediments of woods and polystyrene packing remove from service in view to produce composite materials of wood has been examined. The composite materials consist in that chips or sawdusts of wood sorted [...]
Un séchoir solaire pliable et portatif équipé d’un capteur plan double vitrage fonctionnant sur le principe de l’effet de serre et par convection naturelle a été conçu. La simulation de la température de l’absorbeur et la température de sortie du cap [...]
