Abstract Background This study explored the comparison of the thermal insulation effect of incubator to infusion thermometer in laparoscopic hysterectomy. Methods We assigned 75 patients enrolled in the study randomly to three groups: Group A: Used warming blanket; group B: Used warming blanket and infusion thermometer; group C: Used warming blanket and incubator. The nasopharyngeal temperature at different time points during the operation served as the primary outcome. Results The nasopharyngeal temperature of the infusion heating group was significantly higher than that of the incubator group 60 min from the beginning of surgery (T3): 36.10 ± 0.20 vs 35.81 ± 0.20 (P<0.001)90 min from the beginning of surgery (T4): 36.35 ± 0.20 vs 35.85 ± 0.17 (P<0.001). Besides, the nasopharyngeal temperature of the incubator group was significantly higher compared to that of the control group 60 min from the beginning of surgery (T3): 35.81 ± 0.20 vs 35.62 ± 0.18 (P<0.001); 90 min from the beginning of surgery (T4): 35.85 ± 0.17 vs 35.60 ± 0.17 (P<0.001). Regarding the wake-up time, that of the control group was significantly higher compared to the infusion heating group: 24 ± 4 vs 21 ± 4 (P = 0.004) and the incubator group: 24 ± 4 vs 22 ± 4 (P = 0.035). Conclusion Warming blanket (38 °C) combined infusion thermometer (37 °C) provides better perioperative thermal insulation. Hospitals without an infusion thermometer can opt for an incubator as a substitute. Trial registration This trial was registered with ChiCTR2000039162, 20 October 2020.

Abstract Composite passive insulation technology has been proved to be an effective method to reduce heat leakage into the cryogenic storage tank. However, the current related research mainly focused on liquid hydrogen (LH2). The thermophysical properties of different cryogenic liquids and the thermal insulation materials at different temperatures are significantly different, so whether the results related to LH2 are applicable to other cryogenic liquids remains to be further determined. In fact, the insulation technology of LH2 itself also needs further study. In this paper, a thermodynamic calculation model of a composite insulation system including hollow glass microspheres (HGMs), multilayer insulation (MLI), and self-evaporating vapor cold shield (VCS) has been established. The accuracy of the calculation model was verified by the experimental results, and a comparative study on thermodynamic characteristics of the composite thermal insulation system with liquid methane, liquid oxygen (LO2), and LH2 was carried out. The results show that the heat leakage reduction of the proposed system for liquid methane, LO2 and LH2 is 25.6%, 29.7% and 64.9% respectively compared to the traditional SOFI+MLI system (1*10−3 Pa). The type of liquid and the insulation system structure has a relatively large influence on the VCS optimal position. While for a specific insulation system structure, the insulation material thickness, storage pressure, and hot boundary temperature have a weak influence on the VCS optimal position.

The known cooling methods for the high-temperature operating environment of a mine mainly include ventilation, refrigeration, heat insulation, and individual protection. Among them, the superior performance and wide application of the heat insulation materials have attracted the attention of the coal mining industry. In this paper, three types of mineral insulation materials were prepared using basalt fiber, glass fiber, vitrified microbeads in combination with cement, sand, high-strength ceramsite, water, etc. In addition, the thermal conductivity and compressive strength of the prepared specimens were assessed. The results show that the test specimen containing basalt fiber had a great thermal insulation effect and achieved the required compressive strength. Furthermore, according to the COMSOL simulation results, the test specimen containing basalt fiber had a better thermal insulation effect than the ordinary concrete materials. Therefore, the research results of this article have guiding significance to search for new mine thermal insulation materials.

In this study, a field temperature test was performed to reveal the insulation effect of the thermal insulation layer installed at lining surface. The thermal insulation layer is made of polyphenolic, and the thickness is 7 cm. According to the test results, the temperature of the thermal insulation layer and lining continuously changes with the air temperature in the tunnel in an approximately trigonometric function. The temperature of tunnel lining without thermal insulation layer is close to the air temperature, which results in the lining frost in winter. The maximum temperature difference between the two sides of the thermal insulation layer can be 27°C. In the section whose buried depth is more than 11.4 m, the temperature of lining with thermal insulation layer in winter is mainly influenced by the cold air in the tunnel. When the monthly mean and lowest daily mean air temperature are lower than −10°C and −14.3°C in the coldest month, the temperature at the inner side of the thermal insulation layer is below 0°C. When the buried depth is less than 11.4 m, the temperature of lining is also influenced by the low temperature at ground surface. The temperature of lining is lower. The thicker thermal insulation layer and even active heat measure are needed. Therefore, the design of thermal insulation layer thickness should consider the air temperature distribution and tunnel buried depth along the tunnel length.

Abstract In this paper, a thermal insulation structure with silica aerogel felt as filler material was designed for the requirements of deep-sea fluid thermal insulation sampling technology for Jiaolong human occupied vehicle. Simulation analysis of thermal insulation performance was carried out and an experimental prototype was developed for the thermal insulation structure. Experimental study on thermal insulation performance was conducted with the variation characteristics of the operation environment for Jiaolong human occupied vehicle being taken into account. Results show that the silica aerogel felt with a thickness of 30 mm filled in the radial space between the inner and outer cylinders can achieve the expected thermal insulation effect during the diving-sampling-transferring process, with maximum temperature rise of 8.5 °C, and can meet the requirements of deep-sea fluid thermal insulation sampling technology.
