Title: Calculate the thermal mass created from various buildings.
Course: Renewable Energy (17105) > Section: Exploring Solar Power Systems

Calculation should include measuring the temperature of a thermal mass over time to determine how it stores and releases thermal energy.

Process/Skill Questions:

- What building materials are most effective in storing thermal energy?
- What is the relationship between R-value and U-value?
- What is a British Thermal Unit (BTU)?
- What is thermal mass? How does thermal mass help regulate temperature in the built environment?
