![]() That’s why we write blogs like this and you go out and do energy audits. ![]() The average person doesn’t know how their home works or how heat flows or how much the different components contribute to their energy bills. Thanks for all the great comments so far! Keep ’em coming. Now if you would pardon me while I open up to enjoy my full view of the sun now that the temperature has gone from 40 degrees earlier this morning to a balmy 70 (which is warmer than the thermostat setting). In short, the comfort and enjoyment of a storm door – and the improvement in heat transmission reduction or insultation value is too often significant to disgard this option. Some folks really like the option of having sun stream in via south facing doors in the winter time, or getting more light via shaded doors in the warmer months. ![]() Besides, some folks really like their old wood doors. The insulation value of many exterior doors can be substantially improved by a properly installed storm door which in some cases can add more R/U improvement that a replacement door. Even a 1/16 inch gap along one border is greater than a 2 square inch hole. For example: the air and heat/cold infiltration of many doors – even with added weatherstripping – is significant. seals well, with enough insulation value to potentially achieve a 40% improvement in U value) to be a significant improvement. In short, there are too many, common exceptions that make that make the option of a quality (i.e. Photo of storm door by Corey Ann from, used under a Creative Commons license.ĭo not agree that a storm door is NOT a wise improvement… (By the way, Ira, if you’re looking for someone to discuss building science on your show, I could find some time for you. Sealing the air leaks is the place to start. Go with the caulk, spray foam, mastic, and weatherstripping first. In the house above, the payback on a $200 storm door would be at least 20 years. I’m not a big fan of looking at payback (and if you’re financing, payback is irrelevant), but the payback on a storm door is not very good. In that house, the heating and cooling loads due to the doors in the house added up to only 1% of the total. It’s from a home energy rating for an energy hog of a house in Atlanta. The main reason it won’t save you much energy is that, you don’t have a lot of energy use associated with your doors. A standard door doesn’t have a lot of R-value, but it has more than a single pane of glass. In fact, you may use more energy if you do what so many do and leave the main door open and use your new storm door as a single pane window. Those are better reasons than getting one to save energy because they won’t do a whole lot for you. If you want a storm door to protect your door or for looks or because everyone else is doing it, fine. Here’s why I don’t recommend storm doors for saving energy. They mentioned other items afterward that were better, but a storm door? Really, Ira? So, what does this have to do with storm doors, you’re wondering? Well, in the show, the very first home energy efficiency improvement mentioned on Science Friday was installing a storm door. If you want to take advantage of this federal tax credit, you need to do it soon. Maybe Congress will extend it again, or maybe they won’t. The whole point of the latest edition of Science Friday was to make their listeners aware that this tax credit is expiring at the end of 2011. It’s not great, but it’s something, so if you can get it, you should. It used to be $1500 and 30% of the cost, but they reduced it to $500 and 10% of the cost for this year. This past Friday, they covered a topic near and dear to my heart: the federal tax credit for home energy efficiency improvements.īriefly, you can get up to $500 as a tax credit (which is real money, as opposed to a tax deduction) for home energy efficiency measures you pay for. It’s always interesting, and you get to learn cool new science stuff. ![]() Although I rarely get to listen to it these days, I love the show Science Friday with Ira Flatow on NPR.

Indeed, the dimension of second is time, while meter denotes a length, thus they cannot be compared, added, etc. Simply put, it prevents comparing apples and pears: If you try to convert seconds to meters, SpeedCrunch will complain, stating that the dimensions of second and meter do not match. The order explicit by using newton / (centi meter).įor the same reasons, expressions like 500 gram / 20 gram and (500 gram) / (20 gram) yield different results.Īn important feature of SpeedCrunch’s unit system is dimensional checking. ‘newtons per centimeter’, don’t simply type newton / centi meter – this will be interpreted as (newton / centi) meter!

In that case, the imaginary part of these numbers is discarded when passing them as an argument to a built-in function. However, previously stored variables may still contain complex values. When complex numbers are disabled, the constant j is not available. However, when given a real argument, cbrt() will always return the real cubic root, regardless of whether or not complex numbers are enabled. With complex number support enabled, the power operation x^(1/3) will return the first complex cubic root of x which is usually non-real. Refer to a function’s documentation for more information.Ĭaution is advised when using functions like cbrt() or any fractional power operation with complex numbers. ![]() Not every function in SpeedCrunch supports complex arguments. Simply defining i=j allows you to use i as an alias for j. Although SpeedCrunch does not support this notation by default, it is added easily enough. Some users (especially mathematicians or physicists) may prefer to use the letter i for the imaginary unit. If necessary, consider writing the multiplication explicitly, i.e. J ^ 2 = -1 ( 5 + 3 j ) / ( 8 - 2 j ) = 0.5+0.5jĪ note on the syntax of complex numbers: 5j denotes the number 5*j while j5 is a variable named ‘j5’. ![]() Here you can find the density of the chemical elements.
