Insulation Wall

Foam concrete is a new building energy-saving material, which has the characteristics of light weight, heat insulation and fire prevention. The use of foam concrete slab with grooves cast roof or wall as a template can reduce the amount of the construction process, the cost of project and improve the structural thermal insulation properties. By testing the thermal defects and heat transfer performance of outer insulation and self-insulated wall, and analysis 2 kinds of wall’s heat transfer coefficient, thermal inertia indicators and technical and economic characteristics with Building Heat Transfer Theory, obtain : Foam concrete self thermal insulation wall indoor a hot environment, thermal stability and resistance against external temperature fluctuations is stronger; foam concrete self thermal insulation wall have a good heat transfer performance, and have better marketing prospects.

Airflow and heat transfer simulation was conducted for a double-skin façade (DSF) system equipped with shading devices in the cavity, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with RNG turbulence model and PISO algorithm, for five conditions of slat angles (θ=0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°). The present study indicates that the presence of shading devices influences the temperatures, the ventilation rate and the air distribution in the DSF system. Besides, the different angles will make different influences.

Thermochemical properties are needed to develop process models and define suitable cure cycles to convert thermosetting polymers into rigid glassy materials. Uncertainty surrounding the suitability of thermal analysis techniques and semi-empirical models developed for conventional composite materials has been raised for the new class of particle interleaf materials. This paper describes kinetics, conductivity, heat capacity and glass transition temperature measurements of HexPly® M21 particle interleaf material. Thermal models describing conventional, non-particle epoxy systems were fit to the data and validated through a thick-section cure. Results from curing experiments agree with heat transfer simulation predictions, indicating that established thermal analysis techniques and models can describe polymerisation and evolving material properties during processing of a material representing the class of interleaf toughened systems. A sensitivity study showed time savings up to about 20%, and associated energy-efficiency-productivity benefits can be achieved by using cure simulation for particle interleaf materials.
