Prediction and Performance Investigation of Polyurethane Foam as Thermal Insulation Material for Roofing Sheet Using Artificial Neural Network

Abstract: The prediction and application of Polyurethane Foam in developing roofing sheets cannot be over-emphasized when considering the environmental changes coursed by thermal radiation. This paper presents an artificial neural network application to model and predict the indoor temperature resistance of polyurethane (PU) roofing in residential buildings. The study employed a data logger to measure the indoor and outdoor temperatures for three simulation environments (i.e., morning, afternoon, and evening) for two ho… Show more

“…The thermal conductivity of polyurethane differs with temperature, the density of material mass and moisture content; for example, the thermal conductivity (TC) of polyurethane can rise from 25mW/(mK) to 46mW/(mK) with increasing moisture volumes of 0 vol% to 10 vol% respectively. Polyurethane products can be punctured, cut, and fine-tuned at the construction site without any form of loss in heat resistance [22][23].…”

“…Furthermore, the work of Essien et al [51] says that when considering the environmental changes brought on by thermal radiation, the prediction and usage of polyurethane foam in developing roofing sheets must be regarded. An application of artificial neural networks (ANN) is presented in this paper to simulate and forecast polyurethane (PU) roofing in residential structures' ability to withstand high inside temperatures.…”
