The condition obtained involves solar radiation and convective heat transfer, other terms were shown to be small compared to these. It is shown that this boundary condition leads to a temperature variation that has qualitative agreement with experiments carried out by the Cement and Concrete Institute. date: 2004 date_type: published pages: 8 citation: Charpin, J.P.D. and Myers, T.G. and Fitt, A.D. and Ballim, Y. and Patini, A.
