When discussing the energy efficiency of historic structures, increased humidity of the perimeter wall is a crucial problem. It greatly affects the choice of insulation system, because if the drying of the structure becomes impossible, permanently increased humidity of the structure can lead to serious damage to the perimeter structure. The contribution focuses on the interior insulation design of historical structures with various types of elevated humidity with the use of dynamic simulation techniques to evaluate the appropriateness of several thermal insulation materials. The degree of drying and the thermal-humidity response of the buildings after the historic wall has been insulated from the inside will be assessed based on the findings of HAM simulations.
