19、this specification.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 adsorbenta component of some VIP designs, com-prising a chemical or physical scavenger for gas molecules.3.2.2 center-of-panela small area located at the center ofthe largest planar surface of the panel, equidistant from eac

20、hpair of opposite edges of that surface.3.2.3 center-of-panel apparent thermal resistivitythe ther-mal performance of vacuum panels includes an edge effect dueto some heat flow through the panel barrier and this shunting ofheat around the panel becomes more prevalent with greaterpanel barrier therma

21、l conductivity, as shown in Fig. 1. Forpanels larger than a minimum size (as described in 11.4.1), thecenter-of-panel apparent thermal resistivity is the intrinsic corethermal resistivity of the VIP. This center-of-panel measure-ment is used for quality control, compliance verification, and tocalcul

22、ate the effective thermal performance of a panel. Theeffective thermal performance of a panel will vary with the sizeand shape of the panel.3.2.3.1 DiscussionApparent thermal resistivity, the in-verse of apparent thermal conductivity, is used when discuss-ing the center-of-panel thermal behavior and

23、 this value isindependent of the panel thickness.3.2.4 edge sealany joint between two pieces of panelbarrier material.3.2.5 effective thermal resistance (Effective R-value)thisvalue reflects the total panel resistance to heat flow, consider-ing heat flow through the evacuated region and through thep

24、anel barrier.3.2.5.1 DiscussionDepending on the thermal conductivityand thickness of the panel barrier and the size of the panel, theeffective thermal resistance of the panel over the edge to edgearea may be significantly less than the thermal resistancemeasured or calculated at the center of the pa

25、nel. The effectivethermal resistance will also depend on the temperatures im-posed on the two faces of the panel.3Available from International Organization for Standardization (ISO), 1, ch. dela Voie-Creuse, Case postale 56, CH-1211, Geneva 20, Switzerland, http:/www.iso.ch.4Available from Internati

This value includes the effect of theactual panel dimensions, including the

28、panel thickness.3.2.6 effective thermal resistance after puncturethis valuerepresents the effective thermal resistance of the panel in theevent of a total panel barrier failure (complete loss of vacuum).The edge effect is still present after a puncture.3.2.7 evacuated or vacuum insulationsinsulation

The level of vacuumwill depend on properties of the composite panel materials, andthe desired effective thermal conductivity.63.2.

30、8 panel barrierthe material that envelops the evacu-ated volume and is used to separate the evacuated volume fromthe environment and to provide a long term barrier to gas andvapor diffusion.3.2.9 panel corethe material placed within the evacuatedvolume in order to perform one or more of the followin

31、gfunctions: prevent panel collapse due to atmospheric pressure,reduce radiation heat transfer, and establish interstitial spacesthat are smaller in dimension than (or near to), the mean freepath length of the remaining gas molecules. The thermalconductivity of the panel core, or lcore, is defined as

32、 thethermal conductivity of the core material under the samevacuum that would occur within a panel, but without the panelbarrier material. This is the thermal conductivity that would bemeasured in the center of an infinitely large panel.3.2.10 service lifeThe period of time over which thecenter-of-p

33、anel thermal conductivity meets the definition of asuperinsulation. A standard-condition service life is defined asthat period of time over which the center-of-panel thermalconductivity meets the definition of a superinsulation understandard conditions of 24C and 50 % relative humidity.3.2.10.1 Disc

34、ussionThe thermal resistance of a VIP de-grades with time due to residual outgassing of VIP materialsand gas diffusion through the panel barrier and edge seals. Bothof these processes are affected by the service environment,most importantly by the service temperature and humdity in thesurrounding ai

35、r. The service life in hotter or more humidconditions may be shorter; conversely drier or colder environ-mental conditions can extend the life of the panel.3.2.11 superinsulationinsulation systems whose center-of-panel thermal resistivity exceeds 87 m K/W measured at24C mean.3.3 Symbols and UnitsThe

Materials and Manufacture5.1 Panel Composite DesignThe panel shall consist of agas barrier layer(s), as describ

42、ed in 5.2, and an evacuated corematerial or system as described in 5.3. See Fig. 1.Anengineered quantity of gas adsorbent is optional. It is notnecessary that the panel design be symmetrical, dependingupon end-use requirements.5.2 Panel Barrier CompositionThe panel barrier consistsof one or more lay

43、ers of materials whose primary functions areto control gas diffusion to the core, and to provide mechanicalprotection. Candidate panel barrier materials include metallic,organic, inorganic or a combination thereof depending on thelevel of vacuum required, the desired service life, and theintended se

44、rvice temperature regimes. Panel barrier materialsare selected to prevent outgassing, or at least to give off onlythose gases or vapors which can be conveniently adsorbed.5.3 Panel Core CompositionThe core shall comprise asystem of cells, microspheres, powders, fibers, aerogels, orlaminates, whose c

45、hemical composition shall be organic,6For further discussion on heat flow mechanisms in evacuated insulations, seePractice C740 .C1484 103inorganic, or metallic. Within the reticular portion of the core,subsystems such as honeycomb or integral wall systems areallowed.NOTE 2The function of the core c

46、omposition or system is typicallytwofold: it reduces the radiative, solid, and gaseous heat transfer contri-butions to overall heat transfer, and it can provide a structural complementto the panel barriers. Core systems or densities will therefore vary fordifferent anticipated end-uses and service t

In addition to temperature, temperature gradient, and thicknesseffects, size and shape may have a signi

49、ficant impact on the effectivethermal resistance of superinsulation panels, depending on the thermalconductivity of the panel barrier relative to that of the core. The effectivethermal resistance can also be affected by temporary temperature excur-sions that could occur during panel installation, as discussed further inAppendix X2.6.3 Effective Thermal Resistance After PunctureThisvalue represents the effective thermal resistance of the panel inthe event of a panel barrier failure (that is, after the panelinternal volume has reached ambi
