Method for Determining the Optimum Insulation Thickness of the Plaster Tow Material: Influence of the Heat Exchange Coefficient in Transient Regime

Abstract

In this paper, we have applied a numerical method to determine the optimum insulation thickness of the tow plaster plane material. The influence of the exchange coefficients at the level of the two faces of the material has been highlighted. The optimum insulation thickness of the material is at the area where the thermal resistance value of the material is the maximum. We added the relative thermal resistance to show how the optimum insulation thickness changes when the exchange coefficients change values.
