Means to Improve the Thermal Conductivity of Foam Insulation

The replacement of CFC with an environmentally acceptable blowing agent will result in a higher thermal conductivity for the foam due to the higher conductivity of the blowing agent vapor. Research on means to improve the thermal conductivity is underway at the authors' institution. Tis paper c...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The replacement of CFC with an environmentally acceptable blowing agent will result in a higher thermal conductivity for the foam due to the higher conductivity of the blowing agent vapor. Research on means to improve the thermal conductivity is underway at the authors' institution. Tis paper centers on means to reduce radiation heat transfer in th foam.
