Next-Generation Thermal Insulation Challenges and Opportunities

Editor(s): T.K. Stovall, T.E. Whitaker

The work described in this publication was therefore organized in two areas: advanced materials and advanced measurement technology.

Thirteen peer-reviewed papers measure performance indices for complex three-dimensional systems with multiple components, phase change materials, and in-situ systems. This publication is organized into two areas: advanced materials and advanced measurement technology.

Papers cover:
• Application issues for advanced vacuum insulation systems
• Next-generation of insulation
• Related challenges of supporting these technology advances with more sophisticated measurement systems
