DEVELOPMENTS IN MEASUREMENT OF THE THERMAL DETERIORATION OF INSULATED CONTAINERS IN SERVICE.
Author(s) : HEAP R. D.
Summary
PREVIOUS WORK ON LIFETIME IS OUTLINED, AND THE CONCLUSION IS THAT THE AGEING MECHANISM OF INSULANTS IS NOT COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD. RESULTS ARE PRESENTED ON AN EXPERIMENTAL CONTAINER, FOR A EUROPEAN INTERLABORATORY TEST. THE THERMAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THIS CONTAINER BECAME STABILIZED 12 YEARS AFTER COMMISSIONING. NEW RESULTS ARE GIVEN, WHICH SHOW AGEING FROM 3.7 TO 5. 5 % PER YEAR FOR REINFORCED INSULATED CONTAINERS OF 10 TO 12 YEARS, AND RATES OF 1.8, 2.6 % PER YEAR FOR NORMALLY INSULATED CONTAINERS OF 10 TO 11 YEARS.
