            OBJECTIVE:
                  To introduce the principles of thermal, acoustics, optics and new materials for civil engineering
                    applications

            UNIT I         THERMAL PERFORMANCE OF BUILDINGS                                                 9
            Heat transfer through fenestrations, thermal insulation and its benefits - heat gain and heat loss estimation -
            factors affecting the thermal performance of buildings, thermal measurements, thermal comfort, indices of
            thermal comfort, climate and design of solar radiation, shading devices - central heating. Principles of natural
            ventilation  -  ventilation  measurements,  design  for  natural  ventilation  -  Window  types  and  packaged  air
            conditioners - chilled water plant - fan coil systems - water piping - cooling load - Air conditioning systems
            for different types of buildings - Protection against fire to be caused by A.C. Systems.

            UNIT II        ACOUSTICS                                                                        9
            Classification of sound- decibel- Weber–Fechner law – Sabine‘s formula- derivation using growth and decay
            method – Absorption Coefficient and its determination – factors affecting acoustics of buildings and their
            remedies. Methods of sound absorption - absorbing materials - noise and its measurements, sound insulation
            and its measurements, impact of noise in multi - storeyed buildings.

            UNIT III       LIGHTING DESIGNS                                                                  9
            Radiation  quantities  –  spectral  quantities  –  relationship  between  luminescence  and  radiant  quantities  –
            hemispherical  reflectance  and  transmittance  –  photometry:  cosines  law,  inverse  square  law.  Vision  –
            photopic, mesopic, scotopic visions. Colour – luminous efficiency function - Visual field glare, colour - day
            light calculations - day light design of windows, measurement of day-light and use of models and artificial
            skies, principles of artificial lighting, supplementary artificial lighting.
