IntroductionThe prospects of using of porous heat-insulating materials in the industry don't in doubt [1][2][3]. New porous materials appear every year. Such materials are used as heat-insulating for houses, constructions, pipelines, furnaces, dryers and other industrial equipment. In [4] the creation of new porous heat-insulating heat-proof material on the basis of composite binder and gas agent was described, but thermal properties of such material weren't given and the possibility of porosity regulation wasn't described. Despite the fact that porosity (quantity, size and pores form) influences on the effective thermal conductivity [5,6].The generalized equation of thermal conductivity is needed for assessing of the future effective thermal conductivity of porous material, but it doesn't exist. Also the generalized equation will allow controlling the thermal conductivity of porous material at the pores formation stage without numerous experiments. So, finding of the generalized equation of thermal conductivity of porous heat-insulating materials is an actual scientific task, which is useful for the industry.
The object of the research and its technological auditThe object of research is the heat transfer through porous insulating materials. The most famous problem is the lack of generalized equation of thermal conductivity, it doesn't allow to predict the effective thermal conductivity of the material at the structure formation stage. The reason of it is lack of complex entrance independent factors of porous structure that influence on the effective thermal conductivity. For determining of this factors the computer simulation was used, results of it was confirmed by laboratory experiment. For finding of the generalized equation of thermal conductivity of porous heat-insulating materials the experimental design method was used. Disadvantages of the obtained equation are the narrowed application boundaries, the pore size of 2 mm, the thermal conductivity of the basic material without pores is 0,95 W/(m ⋅ K).
The aim and objectives of the researchThe aims of this work are creation of the generalized equation of thermal conductivity of porous heat-insulating materials and give the practical recommendations for structure formation of such materials.To achieve that aims, next objectives must be solved: 1. Research the influence of the convection in the pores on the thermal resistance by the computer simulation.2. Confirm the obtained dependencies by the practical experiment ...
