Abstract
We present in this paper the first part of the analytical simulation o f the thermal behaviour of terra-cotta brick cavity. We study here a P VC cavity which gets similar dimensions. We equipped it with a lot of temperature sensors as we can represent thermal profiles at different levels in our experimental cell. Then, we compare with theoretical res ults that we obtain using our simplified model based on Karman-Polhaus en's method. We conclude about the method validity in little cavity ca se.
