Description: Soil temperatures beneath a broiler house floor predictedby a finite differencemodel agreed with measured values at the same locations. A summation of the predicted heat fluxes through nodal areas located along a vertical axis at the foundation wall indi cated that insulation in the foundation wall does not reduce heat loss. This is contrary to currently used design data. Polystyrene rigid insu lation placed horizontally on the floor would reduce heat loss by 37 and 42% for insulation thickness of 2.5 and 5 cm, respectively.
