Why Insulation ???

Where Energy goes from a house…

Energy Costs are going through

the roof, walls and windows

Insulation – Selection Criteria &

Comparison

U Value

• Amount heat transmitted in

– unit time

– through unit area of a material or construction and the boundary air films,

– induced by unit temperature difference between the environments on each side.

– Units of U are W/m2-ºC (Btu/h-ft2-°F)

– U = k/t (k = thermal conductivity of material & t =

thickness)Area = 1 m2

T1 = 1oC

T2 = 0oC

U = 13 W/sqm K (6” RCC Slab)

R Value – Thermal resistance

• The reciprocal of the time rate of heat flow

– through a unit area

– induced by a unit temperature difference between two defined surfaces of material or construction

– Units of R are m2-°C/W (h-ft2-°F/Btu).

– R = 1/U = t/k

(k = thermal conductivity of material & t = thickness)

Selection Criteria – Insulation System for

Concrete Building Envelope

• Thermal Performance

– Selection – Thermal Resistance (R-Value) – not on density & thickness

– Eliminates or minimizes thermal bridging – Ideal Location

– Durable (weather-ability)

• Functional

– Absorbs minimum moisture

– Should not be exposed to fire risks

– Safe & Durable (aging and functional use)

Product Comparison–Moisture

Absorption

• Insulation should absorb minimum moisture for best thermal performance

– Very low water absorption per ASTM C578 standard

XPS – Extruded Polystyrene ; EPS – Expanded Polystyrene ; SPU – Sprayed Polyurethane

Product Comparison – R Value retention

CRREL : 80% Minimum Acceptable

• Moisture content affects thermal resistance

– Select an insulation product ( for building envelope ) which retains its thermal resistance – R Value
