I am monitoring a building with temperature sensors.
Observing the inside and outside temperatures I see that when the average temperature difference from inside to outside is 9.4K the speed at which the inside temperature decreases is 0.16 K/hour.
I would like to know if it is possible, with the data I've got, to calculate the U value (W/m2K) of the building so that I can understand its performance and compare it with other buildings.
Since the temperature difference between outside and inside is not constant during the day I am also wondering if using the average temperature difference is a good approximation for my problem.
Thanks
