Abstract:
Situation on insulation market, not only in Czech Republic, is confused for the general public. This paper tries to streamline this fact. Here are described more than 30 types of thermal insulations divided into 6 categories. Each category is detailed described by physical parameters and each is sequentially selected about 5, which are most frequently using like thermal insulation of the building's façade, without air gap. Elementary parameters, which are most important from investors view, are finances. Like a basic reference value was chosen thermal conductivity of insulation and for economical compare was chosen uniform thickness insulation on building envelope 100 mm. On the basis of these two values are insulation chosen. In this paper are results clearly graphically compiled.From graphs it is clear, that most of thermal insulation's values of thermal conductivity are very similar, bud prices of insulations can be usually substantially different. From this is evident, that some of insulation are so popular, because their producer have excellent marketing and promotion.

Abstract:
Increasing the thermal efficiency of drying and firing processes of ceramic products plays an important role for industries that want to remain competitive in the market. Thus, this work aims to evaluate the influence of the type and thickness of thermal insulations, applied on the external sidewalls of an intermittent ceramic kiln, on heat transfer, temperature distribution in the insulating material, maximum external surface temperature, and energy gain, compared to the kiln without thermal insulation. All proposed mathematical formulations are based on the energy conservation, and mathematical procedures are implemented in Microsoft Excel software. Here, it was tested four types of thermal isolators: fiberglass, rockwool, calcium silicate, and ceramic fiber. Results indicate that the greater the thickness of the thermal insulation, the lower the maximum external surface temperature and the greater the energy gain when compared to the kiln without thermal insulation. In addition, fiberglass is the insulating material, among the four types analyzed, which provides greater energy gain and greater reduction in maximum external surface temperature.

Abstract:
Based on similarity theory, the systemic analysis for the distribution characteristics of tunnel temperature field in two different working conditions of having no thermal insulation and installing PU as insulator is progressed by using manufactured model test platform in order to realize the tunnel temperature field rule in cold regions with or without thermal insulation and the influence of thermal insulation layout pattern on insulating effect. The results show that the temperature variation conforms to the “tunnel freeze-thaw circle” theory without thermal insulation, and the surrounding rock maintains negative temperature all the time in the low temperature environment; the internal temperature field of surrounding rock plays a decisive role on the surface temperature of surrounding rock, which keeps above 0°C after the layout of thermal insulation with appropriate material and thickness.

The thermal losses of a bioreactor have to be compensated for fermentation process maintaining (the temperature first of all). In order to decrease consume heat by the bioreactor and to make up thermal losses a heat insulation has been performed. In this paper a noncontact and nondestructive thermography qualification of the thermal losses and evaluation of the heat insulation’s quality for an anaerobic bioreactor is offered. By using software Researcher a thermography analysis for three different cases (without compensated heat losses; with one layer of thermal insulation; with two layers thermal insulation) is carried out. The received results show the advantages of the used approach for qualification of different kind of heat insulations

Abstract:
Purpose The thermal management of electrical insulations poses a challenge in electrical devices as electrical insulators are also thermal insulators. Diamond is the best solid electrical insulator and thermal conductor. This can lead to a paradigm change for electrical machine winding and lamination insulation design and thermal management. The paper introduces these techniques and discusses its effect for the design of electrical machines and its potential consequences for electromagnetic analysis, for example, in multi-physics modelling. The diamond winding insulation is patent-pending, but the diamond enriched lamination insulation is published for the benefit of the scientific community. Design/methodology/approach The windings of electrical machines are insulated to avoid contact between the coil and other conductive components, for example, the stator core. The principle of using mica tape and resin impregnation has not changed for a century and is well established to produce main insulation on a complex conductor shape and size. These insulations have poor heat-conducting properties. Similarly, the insulation of laminated steel sheets comprising the stator and rotor restrict heat flow. Diamond-based insulation provides a new path. Increased thermal conductivity means reduced temperature rise and the reduced thermal time constants in multi-physics simulations and system analysis. Findings The largest benefit of a diamond-based core insulation is in electrical machines in which the losses are conducted axially to the coolant. These are machines with radial ducts and effective cooling in the end regions. The main benefit will be in reducing the number of radial ducts that positively affect the size, production costs and the copper losses of the machine. The increased thermal conductivity of the diamond insulation system will reduce the thermal constants noticeably. These will affect system behavior and the corresponding simulation methods. Originality/value Diamond insulation can lead to a paradigm change for electrical machine winding and lamination insulation design and thermal management. It might also lead to new modeling requirements in system analysis.

Abstract:
This research studied the feasibility of using natural fibers extracted from natural wastes as a thermal-insulating material lined in a Kraft paper box packaging. The natural fibers were extracted from natural waste of rice straws using NaOH solutions. The extracted fibers were then formed as a porous thermal-insulating pad by a spray lay-up method using natural rubbers as binders. The thermal conductivities, specific heat capacities and temperature-rise time of the natural fiber insulation and other thermal-insulating materials including polystyrene foam, a polyethylene foam, and a glass fiber insulation were studied and compared. The glass fiber insulation showed the highest thermal conductivity, while the thermal conductivities of the other studied insulating materials were found to be similar. Moreover, the polymeric and natural-fiber insulations show better temperature-rise resistance than the glass fiber insulation. The temperature rises for different insulating materials were estimated using the analytical analysis of heat transfer. The calculated temperature-rise times were compared with the empirical results; both results are in the same order of magnitude. Consequently, a Kraft paper box lined with natural-fiber pads was constructed and compared with a Kraft paper box (without insulation lining) and a polystyrene box of equal sizes. The boxes were packed with an equal amount of ice and left under room temperature for 24 hours. The results show that, after 24 hours, the temperatures inside the natural-fiber lined box and the polystyrene box were contained below 15 °C, while the temperature inside the Kraft paper box increase to room temperature only after 16 hours. The observation shows that a natural fiber pad can potentially be used as an alternative insulating material in packaging industries, which can enhance environmental-friendly packaging products.

Abstract:
Abstract The use of super insulating materials in the construction industry, including vacuum insulation, closely corresponds to the ever-increasing requirements for the construction of low-energy and passive buildings. Their indisputable advantage is their excellent thermal insulation properties at low thickness compared to conventional thermal insulation materials. However, there are also many risks associated with the experience and practice of the personnel involved in the application of these materials to structures. The paper focuses on the overall comparison of the possible use of vacuum insulation panels in modern building structures in terms of possible design solutions and achieved properties. The paper presents the results of selected case studies of the optimal use of vacuum insulation panels (VIP) in the construction industry, which are focused on different areas of building structures, specifically on the detail of the transition of the terrace and the adjacent floor, as well as on the solution of the filling of openings - doors. Based on the results of the studies carried out, it can be concluded that, provided that all procedures for maintaining the VIP properties are followed in the implementation of these materials in structures, vacuum insulations represent a more suitable solution for structural details in selected details (less thickness and comparable thermal insulation properties compared to conventional insulations).

Abstract:
In order to protect the environment in present-day society, green buildings are seen as an effective and logical solution. Insulating materials are frequently widely used in green buildings to reduce their energy dissipation. China, as a global power, is at the forefront of ecological development. This paper will focus on the study of thermal insulations in the context of green concepts, a specific analysis of their properties and examples of their application in China. It is found that most of the green developments lack economic support and therefore, insulation materials need to be developed in the direction of low cost and high efficiency and effectively reduce their harmful effects on the environment. Furthermore, the development of insulation materials in China should pay attention to geographical differences, i.e. the insulation materials that can be applied in different regions in the North and South are different. This study will facilitate the application of insulating materials in China's ecological development, reducing related energy losses and protecting the surrounding environment.

Abstract:
Energy consumption, specifically in the building sector, is expected to rise. One potential way to reduce energy consumption, or to slow this increase, is to reduce the heat loss in residential homes. Silica aerogels have grown in popularity as an insulating material due to their extremely low thermal conductivity. However, the benefits of using silica aerogels as an insulator in residential buildings have not been thoroughly studied. To understand the benefits of using silica aerogels as a thermal insulator in residential homes, experimentally validated simulations were performed. The simulations were performed on a model of a full-scale residential house using the multiphysics software ANSYS FLUENT 2019 R2. The simulations helped predict the actual saving benefits of using aerogels as an insulator. Aerogels have the potential to be used as an insulator in both the walls and windows due to its semitransparency. The results showed that the average kWh savings using one half-inch layer of wall aerogel insulation coupled with window aerogel insulation was 20.9% for the single-family house compared to traditional insulation. On average, the energy lost through the windows was 39.1% lower when using aerogel insulation compared to standard insulating materials. The energy lost through the house walls was 13.3% lower on average when using a thin layer of aerogel insulation. While a thin layer of aerogel insulation provided a benefit when used in the house walls, the potential for savings per quantity used was greater in the windows.

Abstract:
Thermal insulation systems of ETICS are now mostly solved in the building industry, whether in terms of insulating the structures, choices of materials and subsequent recycling after the end of their life period. From the environmental point of view and also in the perspective of sustainable development, it is essential to look for other suitable material bases which relate only to easily renewable sources of raw materials or to industrial wastes which have long been available in sufficient quantity and quality. It is important that production of the insulation systems is energetically efficient modest in terms of manufacturing facilities. The aim of this paper is to verify the possibility of using natural insulation materials for thermal insulation systems ETICS. This paper describes the results of studies of key properties of insulations based on industrial hemp and flax and the results of computational simulations of the behavior of these insulations incorporated in the real systems ETICS.

Abstract:
The aim of this doctorate is to investigate an alternative to petroleum based thermal insulations, by using natural and recycled materials. The methodology used is centered on the use of the basic ingredients of waste animal fats, waste oils and a potash derived lye mixture, combined to create a crude soap. This soap is aerated to produce a lightweight structure that is capable of preventing or reducing heat transfer between areas of differing temperatures. Experimental testing reveals that this non-toxic product can be strengthened, made waterproof, vermin proof and fire retardant, whilst the results from the thermal testing laboratory confirm that aerated soap insulation functions as a moderate performer. The step-by-step experimental methodology applied, alongside the thermal conductivity and resistance results contained within this thesis, can be used as a gauge for future potential improvements to build from. Currently there are gaps in knowledge and practice with regards to environmental thermal insulation. There are other environmental insulations, but more research needs to be initiated regarding recyclable, biodegradable, renewable and organic components and ingredients within the insulation make-up. Industry trends are to improve the better performing petroleum insulations, whilst seemingly unwilling to compromise on environmental problem relief. This doctorate provides suggestions on how to reduce some of the environmental problems by replacing or diluting the toxic elements of petroleum insulation. Soap insulation is unique and as such makes a significant contribution to knowledge. This uniqueness is evidenced through the literature review and the systematic investigation of the research topic. The awarding of a worldwide patent on soap insulation protects the manufacture of thermal insulation comprising of solid aerated soap panels, derived from animal fats and lye. This idea of combining basic soap ingredients, then aerating the mixture to create thermal insulation is new and as such contributes to new knowledge. The publishing of a journal paper titled “Can Soap be a Sustainable Alternative to Petroleum-Based Thermal Insulation?” in the journal of Structural Survey. (Read & Arayici, 2015) emphasize the contribution of this research. Read & Arayici, (2015) describes the ingredients used, the manufacturing process and the improvement measures taken to create the soap insulation. Publishing is one method of making this research known to the global community. Academics can then engage with fellow academics or collaborate with industry to further this research or to commercialise this knowledge. Aerated soap research can widen the understanding of possible new alternative thermal insulation ideas. This creates a small yet original and significant opportunity to reduce the associated carbon footprint and environmental costs accrued each time that petroleum insulation is produced.

Abstract:
We are coming to realize that there is an urgent need to reduce energy usage in buildings and it has to be done in a sustainable way. This thesis focuses on the performance of the building envelope; more precisely thermal performance of walls and super insulation material in the form of vacuum insulation. However, the building envelope is just one part of the whole building system, and super insulators have one major flaw: they are easily adversely affected by other problems in the built environment.  Vacuum Insulation Panels are one fresh addition to the arsenal of insulation materials available to the building industry. They are composite material with a core and an enclosure which, as a composite, can reach thermal conductivities as low as 0.004 W/(mK). However, the exceptional performance relies on the barrier material preventing gas permeation, maintaining a near vacuum into the core and a minimized thermal bridge effect from the wrapping of barrier material round the edge of a panel. A serpentine edge is proposed to decrease the heat loss at the edge. Modeling and testing shows a reduction of 60% if a reasonable serpentine edge is used. A diffusion model of permeation through multilayered barrier films with metallization coatings was developed to predict ultimate service life. The model combines numerical calculations with analytical field theory allowing for more precise determination than current models. The results using the proposed model indicate that it is possible to manufacture panels with lifetimes exceeding 50 years with existing manufacturing. Switching from the component scale to the building scale; an approach of integrated testing and modeling is proposed. Four wall types have been tested in a large range of environments with the aim to assess the hygrothermal nature and significance of thermal bridges and air leakages. The test procedure was also examined as a means for a more representative performance indicator than R-value (in USA). The procedure incorporates specific steps exposing the wall to different climate conditions, ranging from cold and dry to hot and humid, with and without a pressure gradient. This study showed that air infiltration alone might decrease the thermal resistance of a residential wall by 15%, more for industrial walls. Results from the research underpin a discussion concerning the importance of a holistic approach to building design if we are to meet the challenge of energy savings and sustainability. Thermal insulation efficiency is a main concept used throughout, and since it measures utilization it is a partial measure of sustainability. It is therefore proposed as a necessary design parameter in addition to a performance indicator when designing building envelopes. The thermal insulation efficiency ranges from below 50% for a wood stud wall poorly designed with incorporated VIP, while an optimized design with VIP placed in an uninterrupted external layer shows an efficiency of 99%, almost perfect. Thermal insulation efficiency reflects the measured wall performance full scale test, thus indicating efficiency under varied environmental loads: heat, moisture and pressure. The building design must be as a system, integrating all the subsystems together to function in concert. New design methodologies must be created along with new, more reliable and comprehensive measuring, testing and integrating procedures. New super insulators are capable of reducing energy usage below zero energy in buildings. It would be a shame to waste them by not taking care of the rest of the system. This thesis details the steps that went into this study and shows how this can be done.

Buildings consume too much energy. For example, 16.6% of all the energy used in the United States goes towards just the heating and cooling of buildings. Many governments, organizations, and companies are setting very ambitious goals to reduce their energy use over the next few years. Because the time periods for these goals are much less than the average lifetime of a building, existing buildings will need to be retrofitted. There are two different types of retrofitting: shallow and deep. Shallow retrofits involve the quickest and least expensive improvements often including reducing infiltration around windows, under doors, etc and blowing more insulation into the attic. Deep retrofits are those that involve costly renovation and typically include adding insulation to the walls and replacing windows. A new, easily installable, inexpensive, and thin insulation would move insulating the walls from the deep retrofit category to the shallow retrofit category and thus would revolutionize the process of retrofitting homes to make them more energy efficient. This thesis provides an overview of a concept for a new, easily installable, inexpensive, thin aerogel-based insulation and goes into detail on how the thermal properties of the aerogel were measured and validated. The transient hot-wire method for measuring the thermal conductivity of very low thermal conductivity silica aerogel (1 0mW/m K at 1 atm) along with a correction for end effects was validated with the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Standard Reference Material 1459, fumed silica board to within 1 mW/mK. Despite the translucence of the aerogel at certain wavelengths, radiation is not an issue through the aerogel during the hot-wire test but may be an issue in actual use as an insulation. The monolithic aerogel thermal conductivity drops significantly with slightly reduced pressure (3.2 mW/m K at 0.1atm). For the final composite insulation, the new silica aerogel formula is a great choice and it is recommended to reduce the pressure around the aerogel to 1 / 1 0 th. In the future, a prototype of an insulation panel combining a 3-D truss structure, monolithic or granular silica aerogel, and reduced pressure will be constructed and tested.

Abstract:
Fibre-reinforced polymeric composites for structural applications are required to conform to specific fire performance requirements and to retain their mechanical integrity after exposure to heat/fire. Many polymeric composites will lose their structural integrity when exposed to temperatures close to the glass transition temperature of the resin matrix. The most effective technique of protecting these materials against heat and fire is the use of surface coatings, which can inhibit or reduce the heat transfer from the fire/heat source to the underlying structure. In this PhD, novel thermal barrier coatings and techniques of their application on the surface of glass fibre-reinforced epoxy (GRE) composites were developed. These include: (1) commercially available intumescent coatings applied by paint brush and roller (2) nanoclays, dispersed in a solvent and sprayed on plasma activated GRE laminate surfaces (3) ceramic nano/microparticles dispersed in a flame retardant resin, applied by painting or K-bar application and (4) chemical coating obtained by applying phosphorus containing monomers (vinyl phosphonic acid) on a GRE surface by paint brush and polymerisation using UV radiation. Surface characterisation was carried out on each coating by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and a water drop test. These results showed that the application method used plays an important role in determining the uniformity of the coating. Plasma treatment increased the hydrophilicity of the GRE composite surface, while in the presence of a resin binder, the coating established a hydrophobic surface. The effect of these coatings on the flammability of the composites was studied by a cone calorimeter at different heat fluxes, and the thermal barrier effect of the coatings was measured by insertion of thermocouples into the laminate during the cone experiments and measuring the time for the back surface temperature to reach the glass transition temperature of the resin. Intumescent coatings, as expected, showed the best performance and were used to set a benchmark for the performance of the other coatings. The nanoparticle and micro-ceramic particle coatings can act as thermal barriers. However, their concentration on the surface of laminates was not high enough to provide effective thermal protection for an extended period of time. The chemical (poly (vinyl phosphonic acid)) coating provided the best thermal barrier of the coatings due to its ability to form an intumescent char. Three point blending flexural and impact tests were used to study the effect of the coatings on the mechanical properties of the laminates. The contribution of the coating to the impact and flexural modulus of the laminates is related to the thickness of the coating and its mechanical properties. Thus, thin coatings showed better results than thick coatings. Each coating had a minimal effect on the mechanical properties of the GRE composite, while they improve the retention of mechanical property after exposure to heat, with the chemically coated samples performing the best, due to the formation of a thick intumescent char. A tape pull was performed to study the adhesion of the coatings on the GRE surfaces. All coatings containing resin binder or polymerized on the GRE surfaces were durable and did not peel off. The durability to water was tested by a water soak test. The nano/micro particulate ceramic coatings showed the best performance, whereas the chemical coatings showed the worst behaviour due to the highly hydrophilic nature of the poly (vinyl phosphonic acid).

Abstract:
Dans les turbines à gaz aéronautiques, les matériaux employés dans les parties les plus chaudes sont soumis à des environnements chimiques extrêmes, sous fortes pressions et températures. Ainsi, des systèmes de revêtement « barrière thermique, BT » sont appliqués sur les substrats en superalliage à base nickel. Ces systèmes multicouches (zircone stabilisée à l’yttrine (YSZ) /couche de liaison en MCrAl ou NiPtAl/substrat refroidi) permettent d’abaisser la température à la surface des pièces, conduisant à un comportement thermomécanique adéquat et à une diminution des vitesses d’oxydation/corrosion. Cependant, l’augmentation nécessaire de la température des gaz d’entrée de turbine (augmentation du rendement moteur) entraîne de nouveaux phénomènes de dégradation (CMAS) et une perte d’efficacité des revêtements BT actuels. Par ailleurs, l’évaluation de la durée de vie des revêtements BT s’avère cruciale pour déterminer celle des moteurs. Comprendre l’évolution du pouvoir isolant des revêtements BT en environnement agressif constitue donc un enjeu essentiel du point de vue scientifique et technologique. A partir des revêtements couramment employés (YSZ) déposés par projection plasma (PS) ou en phase vapeur (EB-PVD), la présente étude a visé à mieux comprendre l’effet de l’évolution des propriétés microstructurales et chimiques des revêtements sur leur pouvoir isolant, dans le but de développer des outils nécessaires à la mise au point des revêtements du futur. De plus, une partie des travaux menés a porté sur une solution alternative plus économique et écologique d’élaboration de revêtements BT, fondée sur un procédé par voie barbotine, permettant in fine d’obtenir une barrière constituée de microsphères creuses d’alumine. Ce travail a permis de montrer que l’évolution par frittage des phases céramiques en YSZ, les changements de phase cristalline, les réactions avec les CMAS et la croissance d’oxydes thermiques modifient la diffusivité thermique. En revanche, celle-ci évolue moins avec la température puisque les revêtements en alumine issus de barbotines se sont avérés plus stables et ce, notamment, lorsque leur élaboration a été réalisée sous atmosphères hybrides (mélanges Ar/air)
In aeronautical gas turbine engines, the metallic materials employed in the hottest sections are subject to very harsh chemical environments at high pressures and temperatures. Therefore, thermal barrier coating systems (TBCs) are applied onto nickel-based superalloy substrates. These multi-layered systems (ceramic yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) / MCrAl or NiPtAl bond coats / cooled substrate) lower the temperature at the components surface, which ensures an adequate thermomechanical behaviour and reduces the oxidation/corrosion rates. However, the increase of the turbine inlet temperature (increased engine performance) brings about new degradation phenomena (e.g. CMAS) and loss of efficiency of the current TBCs. Therefore, understanding the evolution of the insulation ability of TBCs in such harsh environments is key from both the scientific and technological perspectives to estimate the lifetime of these coatings, hence that of the engines. Based on current plasma-sprayed (PS) and electron-beam physical vapour deposited (EB-PVD) YSZ coatings, this thesis seeks to provide a better comprehension on the relationships between the intrinsic properties of the current TBCs and their thermal insulation capacity as a basis for the development of future coatings. Also, this work studies an alternative solution to create a TBC made of hollow alumina microspheres by the slurry route. We will show that the sintering of the YSZ, the evolution of crystal phases, the reactions between YSZ and CMAS and the growth of thermal oxides alter the thermal diffusivity to different extents. In contrast, the evolution of the thermal diffusivity with temperature is less marked with the slurry alumina coatings, which appear more stable when hybrid Ar/air annealing atmospheres are employed upon their synthesis

Abstract:
AbstractIn order to study the influence of the arrangement of thermal insulation floor on the thermal insulation and mechanical properties of hollow slab, ABAQUS is used to establish the model of thermal analysis and mechanical behavior of hollow slab. By investigating distribution of temperature, distribution of heat flux, damage and deformation of floor, deformation of mid-span deflection and other characteristics of the floor section, it is concluded that although the transmission of heat can be effectively obstructed by the thermal insulation slab, the heat will be transferred to the interior of the floor through the gap between the thermal insulation slabs. The arrangement of thermal insulation slab is not the main factor which affect the thermal insulation properties of the floor with the same coverage area. Different arrangement of the thermal insulation slab has a certain impact on the mechanical performance of floor. It is recommended to arrange the thermal insulation slab in equal sections to fully improve the contact area between steel bar and concrete, which can effectively provide the bearing capacity of the floor.

Abstract:
Buildings are a significant source of energy consumption in the US and worldwide, and conditioning building interiors occupies a major portion of that expenditure. At the building level, a particular scenario can occur where it becomes more advantageous for a structure’s walls to be “open” to the outside, as opposed to remaining “closed”, in an insulating state. For instance, a cool night may follow a hot summer day after the sun sets, but traditional insulation captures heat built up inside a home. A clear, sunny day may also heat a building’s exterior during a cold winter day, and heat transfer to the interior would be more desirable than insulation. This paper presents a study of a concept, termed “smart insulation”, that could be used in such scenarios to take advantage of beneficial thermal gradients in order to save heating and cooling costs. Enabling heat transfer without moving air can also help control humidity within interior spaces, as well as limit noise either from moving air or through open windows. Unlike traditional insulation that maintains a specific insulating value during its useful life, smart insulation changes between an insulating and a conducting state depending on the thermal gradient. Some design concepts have been fabricated and were tested in an insulated chamber that provides a “hot side” and a “cool side”. In the test chamber, temperature measurements were taken and the insulating capacity of each design specimen was calculated. Results indicate that the designs have potential to operate between two states (with the best case ranging from 11% to 61% of a benchmark insulation case) and effectively provide sustainable heating or cooling by capitalizing on ambient outdoor conditions.

Abstract:
Thermal insulation represents one of the major challenges for energy efficiency. Problems related to insulation are well-known and widely studied in mathematical physics. Neverthless, mathematics involved is still very tricky especially when one looks at shape optimization issues [1, 2], and sometimes the answers are not so intuitive [3].In this talk we will consider two domains: an internal (fixed) ball of radius r and an external domain whose geometry varies. Physically, we are considering a domain of given temperature, thermally insulated by surrounding it with a constant thickness of thermal insulator. Our question is related to the best (or worst) shape for the external domain, in terms of heat dispersion (of course, under prescribed geometrical constraints). Mathematically, our problem is composed by an elliptic PDE with Robin-Dirichlet boundary conditions. This work is still in progress and we want to share someremarks and open questions, in addition to the results obtained so far.REFERENCES[1] F. Della Pietra, C. Nitsch, C.

Abstract:
The article deals with the research of thermal insulation properties of thin-layer insulating material made of hollow glass-ceramic microspheres in relation to technical building installations. Until now, there has been a lack of scientific studies describing the effectiveness of thermal insulation properties of thin-layer insulation materials on distribution systems or technical equipment. In this particular case, the insulation material was applied in a two-millimeter layer to a heat storage tank and the heat losses were compared for four models (model A - storage tank without insulation, model B - storage tank with thin-layer insulation coating made of hollow glass-ceramic microspheres, model C - storage tank with commonly used insulation supplied by the manufacturer for a specific type of storage tank, and model D - storage tank with insulating coating, including classic insulation). The measured data show that in this particular case, thin-layer insulation material cannot be a good competitor to custommade conventional thermal insulation for a given heat storage tank, however, research shows some potential in specific situations that occur in practice such as insulating of complicated pipeline routes and fittings or additional insulation of pipelines within the reconstruction of buildings in case of lack of space for the application of common insulation.

Abstract:
Subsea production of oil and gas involves structures on the seabed such as manifolds and X-mas trees that require thermal insulation of piping and valves to avoid gas hydrate formation. The insulation is expensive and time consuming to apply yet may still leave areas with inadequate protection. These “cold spots” accelerate the cooling during a production shutdown. A Heat-Bank concept is developed as an alternative to conventional insulation. The entire subsea structure is covered with an insulated shell. During shutdowns the heated fluid inside the cover keeps the production equipment warm over a prolonged period before hydrates start to form. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are used to quantify the heat loss effects of natural convection and leakage through openings in the cover. The CFD analyses demonstrate the relative performance of the concept compared to the traditional method of insulating individual piping components. Application of the Heat-Bank concept opens new possibilities for environmentally friendly and cost-effective field development, especially for deep water.

Abstract:
Abstract In this work, completely ceramic heating elements have been developed by the combination of conductive and insulating thermally sprayed oxide coatings. These heating elements with a total thickness of less than 1 mm have been directly applied on metallic substrates. APS- and HVOF-sprayed Al2O3 and spinel (MgAl2O4) coatings were employed for insulation. A comparative analysis of the insulating properties (dielectric strength, electrical resistivity) of these coatings is presented. The HVOF-sprayed spinel coatings show better dielectric breakdown strength and higher electrical resistance stability. TiOx, TiO2-10%Cr2O3 and TiO2-20%Cr2O3 powders have been used to prepare the electrical conductive coatings. The thermal and oxidation stabilities at high temperature, as well the electrical properties have been investigated. Addition of Cr2O3 reduced the oxidation rate of titanium oxide and increased the operational temperature of the heating coating. A ceramic heater consisting of spinel coating as insulator and TiO2- 20Cr2O3 as conductor was sprayed on a metallic roller and the electrical stability during the long-term (300h) thermo-cycling (from RT to 300°C) was successfully tested.

Abstract:
Residential buildings are one of the crucial energy consumers. The vast majority of the existing buildings require urgent retrofitting due to the very poor thermal insulation properties of their external building envelope. There are many building retrofitting technologies available on the market. However, thermal insulation technologies, such as rendered and double facades, require large amount of on-site human working hours. One of the most promising technologies is a modular retrofitting.
