Specially designed experiments were performed at an outdoor test facility to determine the cooling-load z-transfer function coefficients due to solar gain input, as well as the room-air transfer function coefficients. Three sets of coefficients were obtained for different mass levels in wood-frame houses. These levels, which cover a range lower than those covered in the ASHRAE Handbook., are particularly useful for energy calculations for houses. The mass levels examined are based on 46, 130, and 535 kg/m2 (9.4, 26.6, and 110 Ib/ft2) of floor area.
