Influence of Excitation Period on Thermal Transfer of Tow-Plaster Thermal Insulation Plate Attached to Wall: Application to Cold Room

Abstract

Composite wall consisting of three layers placed from outside to inside in concrete, plaster and plexiglass, is subject to external climatic constraints evolving in frequency dynamic regime. Goal is to maintain indoor environment at lower temperature for thermal comfort in homes or thermal insulation of cold rooms. By means of excitation pulse, periods of external climatic stresses for which thermal insulation is effective for this wall system are determined

Study of Energy Storage Phenomena in a Flat Wall Containing a Kapok-Plaster Material in Frequential Dynamic Regime-Influence of Depth

“…This, therefore, reflects the good quality of the thermal insulation that is the kapok-plaster. Because an insulator is all the more efficient when it can store large quantities of heat on very thin thicknesses [7]. This is what gives the material good thermal inertia.…”
