Thermal Insulation in High Mountainous Regions

NUMERICAL TECHNIQUES FOR DIFFERENT THERMAL INSULATION MATERIALS

The objective of this work is to predict the temperature of the different types of walls which are Ferro cement wall, reinforced cement concrete (RCC) wall and two types of cavity walls (combined RCC with Ferrocement and combined two Ferro cement walls) with the help of mathematical modeling. The property of low thermal transmission of small air gap between the constituents of combine materials...

Thermal insulation in malnourished Jamaican children.

Brooke, 0. G. (1973). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 48, 901. Thermal insulation in malnourished Jamaican children. The mean summed skinfold at 6 sites in 20 malnourished Jamaican children was 24 5 mm on admission to hospital and 49 8 mm on discharge. Marasmic children initially had thinner skinfolds than children with oedematous malnutrition, and they had a highly significant reduction in t...

Determination of the Thermal Resistance of Pipe Insulation Material from Thermal Conductivity of Flat Insulation Products

New European product standards now include a mandatory requirement for manufacturers to declare the temperature-dependent thermal conductivity for each insulation used in building equipments and industrial installations. For pipe insulation systems, the measurement is usually performed by a standard pipe test method, in which the value on a large temperature range is integrated to reduce temper...
