  1. THERMAL INSULATION IN THE NEW ERA

  2. INSULATION THICKNESS IN EUROPE ROOFS

  3. INSULATION THICKNESS IN EUROPE WALLS

  4. ENERGY LOSSES IN EUROPE ROOFS

  5. ENERGY LOSSES IN EUROPE WALLS

  6. THE NEW REALITY • CO2 emissions increase due to increased energy consumption. • Result is climate change. • Result is even higher energy consumption. • Closed loop effect. • On top of that oil prices increased by 80%.

  7. THE ONLY RELIABLE SOLUTION IS PROPER THERMAL INSULATION • Increased energy consumption in industry due to growth is inevitable. • Decrease energy consumption in housing by efficient thermal insulation.

  8. CALCULATION OF OPTIMUM INSULATION THICKNESS

  9. 10% BUILDING ENERGY LOSSES

  10. THERMAL TRANSPORT MECHANISMS • Conduction through material mass. • Convention via gas phase movement. • Radiation.

  11. HOT (lots of vibration) COLD (not much vibration) Heat travels along the rod CONDUCTION THERMAL TRANSPORT

  12. CONVENTION THERMAL TRANSPORT BY GAS PHASE

  13. CONVENTION THERMAL TRANSPORT – HOME RADIATOR

  14. Increased temperature THERMAL TRANSPORT VIA RADIATION

  15. THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY λ

  16. IS AIR A THERMOINSULATING AGENT?

  17. THEORY OF THERMAL INSULATING MATERIALS

  18. Factors Affecting λ Value Of Cellular Plastic Materials

  19. Types of Thermal Insulation Cork Glass Wool EPS XPS

  20. Types of Thermal Insulation

  21. HUMIDITY - THE WORST ENEMY OF THERMAL INSULATION

  22. BASIC INSULATING MATERIALS

  23. Dry condition / 100mm thick BASIC INSULATING MATERIALS

  24. AplaXFoam Products and EPS BASIC INSULATING MATERIALS

  25. BASIC INSULATING MATERIALS The retained thermal resistance after 18 months on the exterior foundation wall.

  26. BASIC INSULATING MATERIALS How the insulation acts when exposed to moisture.

  27. BASIC INSULATING MATERIALS How insulations acts when exposed to moisture vapors.

  28. BASIC INSULATING MATERIALS How the insulation acts when exposed to freeze - thaw cycling.

  29. BASIC INSULATING MATERIALS • EXPANDED POLYSTYRENE • FIBERS (GLASS - ROCK ) • EXTRUDED POLYSTYRENE

  30. XPS – Extruded Polystyrene • Implementation of up to date technology. • Excellent thermal insulation. • Low retention of water and humidity. • High mechanic resistance. • High compression resistance. • Dimensional stability. • Homogeneous density to mass. • Resistance to the action of acids and bases. • Insensitive to temperature variations. • Compatibility to materials used in constructions (cement, gypsum). • Easy to transport, cut and applied. • Self extinguishing properties. • Clean, odorless, non irritating to skin. PROPERTIES STABLE THROUGH TIME

  31. SELECTION OF INSULATION SYSTEM AND MATERIAL • Study and analysis of the total problem. • Selection of the best solution. • Assurance of properties for long time. • Incorporation of all cost affecting parameters.

  32. THE INSULATION OF FLAT ROOFS –INVERSED ROOF • Insulation of flat roof with the traditional method the insulation is under the waterproofing (EPS-STONEWOOL) • Insulation of flat roofs with the inversed roof principal the insulation is above the waterproofing material (XPS)

  33. THE INSULATION OF FLAT ROOFS –TRADITIONAL ROOF

  34. THE INSULATION OF FLAT ROOFS –INVERSED ROOF

  35. DAY NIGHT TEMP VARIATION FOR MEMBRANE

  36. FAQ FAQ FAQ FAQ FAQ FAQ FAQ • For a facade what should I use: XPS or EPS or stone wool ? • Is polyurethane a bad insulating material ? • Is cellular cement a good insulating material ? • Is stone wool better than XPS as a thermal insulating material? • Is XPS a sound insulating material? • Is stone wool a good sound insulating material? • For a flat roof what thermal insulation should I use ?
