Advanced Modeling of Enclosed Airspaces to Determine Thermal Resistance for Building Applications

Advanced Modeling of Enclosed Airspaces to Determine Thermal Resistance for Building Applications

Enclosed airspaces to reduce heat flow have been recognized for well over 100 years. Airspaces with one or more reflective surfaces define reflective insulation (RI) assemblies, a product type used in walls, roofs, windows with multiple panes, curtain walls and skylights. The thermal resistance (R v...
