Significance and Use4.1 This guide

16、 provides a method to determine the thermalperformance of low-density blanket-type insulation. It may beused for the purposes of quality assurance, certification, orresearch.4.2 The thermal resistance of low-density insulation de-pends significantly on the density, the thickness, and thermalconducti

17、vity. Typical low-density, mineral-fiber insulation forbuildings may vary in density from one specimen to the next.4.3 Thermal tests are time-consuming in comparison withdensity and thickness measurements. Low-density insulationmaterial is produced in large quantities. A typical lot would bea truckl

18、oad or the amount necessary to insulate a house.4.4 The relatively low unit cost of this product and therelatively high cost of thermal resistance testing makes itcost-effective to test only a small percentage of the productarea. It is recommended that there be a determination of thedensity that is

19、representative of a lot by the measurement of theaverage density of a statistically representative sampling.4.5 Afewer number of thermal measurements are then madeto determine the apparent thermal conductivity at the previ-ously determined representative density. The essential signifi-cance of this

20、guide is that a large lot of variable material is bestcharacterized by: (a) determining the representative density,and by (b) determining the thermal property at this represen-tative density with a small number of thermal measurements.4.6 Building insulation products are commonly manufac-tured in th

21、icknesses ranging from 19 to 330 mm (0.75 to 13 in.)inclusive. Experimental work has verified that there is adependence of lappon thickness for some low density materi-als.4.7 The upper limit of test thickness for specimens evalu-ated using Test Methods C177, C518, and C1114 is establishedbased upon

22、 the apparatus design, overall dimensions, expectedthermal resistivity level and desired target accuracy. Thetesting organization is responsible for applying these restric-tions when evaluating a product to ensure that the results meetapplicable product labels and any existing regulatory require-men

23、ts.(2)4.8 Extrapolation of the apparent thermal conductivity orthe thermal resistance beyond the ranges of thickness ordensity of products tested is not valid.5. Sampling5.1 For low-density mineral-fiber insulation, a lot samplesize of 75 to 150 ft2is recommended to determine the averagedensity, Dav

24、. Density is determined by using Test MethodC167; take care to avoid the use of damaged material.5.2 In order to account for the variation in l-value due toproduct density variability, measure a minimum of three “lversus D” data points on three different samples. This repre-sents nine data points fo

25、r the “l versus D” curve.Again, this “lversus D” curve is developed to determine the l-value at aparticular representative density characteristic of a lot ofmaterial.5.3 The size of a lot of material to be characterized, theamount of material measured for the representative values ofdensity and thic

26、kness, and the frequency of tests all depend onthe users needs, which could be related to quality assurance bya manufacturer, certification, or research.6. Procedure6.1 This procedure uses nine li; Di data points allmeasured at the same hot and cold plate temperatures, toestablish an interpolation e

27、quation for the determination of thel-value at the average density, Dav. That is, the subscript irefers to the ithtest point. The Diis the average density of thespecimen within the apparatus meter-area. The thermal resis-tance at Lavand Davis as follows:Rav5 Lav/lav(3)6.2 Before the set of “apparent

28、 thermal conductivity versustest density (liversus Di)” data points can be measured on anapparatus, it is necessary to choose the test densities andthicknesses. Three procedures for this choice are described inAnnex A1.6.2.1 Procedure AAsingle test specimen is compressed toobtain different densities

29、 (A1.2). This procedure offers theadvantage of less test time to obtain three test points.6.2.2 Procedure BA different specimen is used for eachtest point (A1.3). This method has the advantage of a betterstatistical sampling with regard to material variability.6.2.3 Procedure CTest at Davthereby eli

30、minating theneed for an interpolation (A1.4).6.3 Obtain a test value for l at each of the three densities.These three sets of test values result in three equations of theform of Eq 2 in 3.2.1. These are solved simultaneously todetermine the values of as, bs, and cscorresponding tospecimen s (see A2.

31、1.2).NOTE 1Small errors in the measured values of l will result in largevariations in the values of a, b, and c. Even so, the uncertainty of theinterpolated value of l will be comparable to the measured error in l.6.4 Whenever possible, calculate running averages for thespecific product lot based on

32、 a number N equal to 20 or moresets of product curve parameters (as;bs;cs). Remember from6.3 that each of these sets requires three test points (seeA2.1.3).6.4.1 A larger number N results in more consistent valuesfor a, b, and c; a smaller N represents a more current data base.6.5 In 6.3 a set of pa

33、rameter values was calculated, and in6.4 a running average was calculated. This section describeshow to obtain an interpolation curve (or equivalently a set ofinterpolation curve parameters) for the next sample, s, when ithas been possible to previously obtain a running average set, (a; b; c). The g

34、iven values are the set a; b; c and themeasured values of liat three densities, Di.NOTE 2Parameter c is expected to account for most of the variation inC653 97 (2012)2the “l versus D” curve from specimen to specimen. When the density isless than 16 kg/m3(1 lb/ft3), c is the dominant parameter causin

35、g thevariance of l from specimen to specimen. Then the previously determinedvalues, a, and b are used, along with a measurement of l at a particulardensity, to calculate a value of c for a particular specimen, s. In order tohave a better estimate of the mean, the value of c is thusly determined fort

36、hree values of density resulting in the value cs. The interpolation to the lvalue at the average density, Dav, is calculated as follows, using Eq 3.ls5 a 1 bDav1 cs/Dav(4)An example of this calculation is in A2.1.46.6 Compute the average value of lavbased on as manyvalues of lsthat have been determi

37、ned. Remember from 6.3and 6.5 that three test points are required to obtain a value forlav. Common practice is to base an average lavon three valuesof ls.6.7 Calculate the R-value, Rav, of the product at the averagedensity and thickness (see Section 5 and A1.1) as follows:Rav5 LT/lav(5)7.

Precision and Bias8.1 There are a number of ways to combine the systematicand random uncertainties that contribute to an overall uncer-tainty of a meas

40、ured quantity. The following procedure isintended as a guideline.8.2 The term precision is used in this guide in the sense ofrepeatability. The estimation of the standard deviation, s, for aset of measurements with a normal distribution is the plus andminus range about an average value or curve, wit

41、hin which68 % of the observations lie. The s is used to quantify theprecision.8.3 The term bias as used in this guide represents the totaluncertainty in a set of measurements, including apparatussystematic error, apparatus precision, and the material variabil-ity.8.4 The apparatus precision is the v

42、ariation that occurswhen repeated observations are made on a single specimen oridentical specimens. It is quantified by sa, and it is required asinput data from either Test Method C177, C518,orC1114.(3)8.5 The material variability is partly taken into account bythe l versus D curve.When different sp

43、ecimens are tested therewill be an amount of variation about the average l versus Dcurve in addition to the apparatus precision. This additionalvariation is here called the material variability and is desig-nated by sm.8.6 The total “repeatability” uncertainty on a l versus Dgraph will be the sum of

44、 the aforementioned uncertainties andis designated by sl.sl5 sa21 sm2!0.5(6)8.7 In order to know what slis, it is necessary to plot anumber of l versus D test points. Twenty or more points arerecommended. It is then possible to determine by a graphical ora mathematical method (see Annex A3) what is

45、the 1s bandwithin which 68 % of the points lie or what is the 2s bandwithin which 95 % of the points lie.8.8 When more than one apparatus is used to develop the lversus D curve, there will be a difference between the averagevalues on the same set of specimens due to a systematicdifference among the

It is designated by Dland is provided as input fromTest Method C177, C518,orC1114.8.10 For the purposes of this guide the overall accuracy, Cl,of the reported
