...Coquard Rémi; Baillis Dominique; Quenard Daniel Expanded polystyrene foams are one of the most widely used materials for a building’s thermal insulation. Owing to their very low density, a substantial proportion of the heat transfer is due to thermal radiation propagating through their porous...

...Uma Maheswaran; S. C. Sekhar A compartmented cooling coil is a single undivided coil section located in an intermediate point between the upstream and downstream sections of the air handling unit. A thermally insulated metal barrier is provided for the separation of two different air streams...

...Erik R. Bardy; Joseph C. Mollendorf; David R. Pendergast Aerogel is among the best solid thermal insulators. Aerogel is a silica gel formed by supercritical extraction which results in a porous open cell solid insulation with a thermal conductivity as low as 0.013 W ∕ m K . Aerogels have a wide...

... hydrogen storage, efficient heat transfer during compression and intercooling decreases compression work. In addition, enhanced heat transfer inside the tank during the fueling process can minimize additional compression work. For liquid hydrogen storage, improved thermal insulation of cryogenic tanks can...

... that the performance paradox pointed out by Bejan can be resolved. The case of a balanced counter-flow system was examined and it has been shown that a heat exchanger can be regarded as both a heat conductor and a heat insulator in terms of entropy generation. heat exchangers heat conduction thermal insulation...
