Test procedures for advanced insulation panels.

Summary

Numerous advanced insulation concepts have been developed to the stage that full-scale prototypes and, in some cases, commercial products are available. These concepts include powder, aerogel, foam, glass fiber filled evacuated panels, and low conductivity gas based systems, either at a vacuum or at atmospheric pressure. These emerging insulation technologies offer the potential for extremely high thermal resistance values. The National Institute of Standards and Technology has undertaken a research program to develop thermal measurement techniques appropriate for advanced insulation panels.
