Abstract This research aims to discuss and determine acoustic performance values for impact noise insulation (L’nT,w) 39 floor system compositions that have different resilient materials wooden laminate finishing. The methodology is organized according ISO 16283-2, 717-2 NBR 15575-3 classification. results obtained demonstrate the prefabricated ribbed slab with prestressed joists ceramic slabs,...

this paper presents an investigation on the effect of temperature and raw material on microstructure of fine cellular foam used as the insulation of coaxial cables. a set up was prepared and used to produce fine cellular foamed insulation. as the physical  blowing agent, butane was used. the effect of temperature on the microstructure of polyethylene (pe) was worth to note. at high temperature,...

Transportation noise contains significant low frequency components. It is difficult to sound insulate buildings against transportation noise because wall cavities are only effective in increasing sound insulation above the mass-air-mass resonance frequency. Stud walls can also have a significant structural resonance in this low frequency range, although it is not yet clear if this is significan...

The current multi-layer insulation used in the extravehicular mobility unit (EMU) will not be effective in the atmosphere of Mars due to the presence of interstitial gases. Alternative thermal insulation means have been subjected to preliminary evaluation by NASA to attempt to identify a material that will meet the target conductivity of 0.005 W/m-K. This study analyzes numerically the thermal ...

1.1 The computer programs included in this practice provide a calculational procedure for predicting the heat loss or gain and surface temperatures of insulated pipe or equipment systems. This procedure is based upon an assumption of a uniform insulation system structure, that is, a straight run of pipe or flat wall section insulated with a uniform density insulation. Questions of applicability...

- At the substation there are equipment that is intended as a transmission regulator, one of which current transformer. "Current transformer (CT) device used to convert high value into lower for measurement and protection purposes, also isolate secondary circuit from primary circuit." The research was conducted by comparing results insulation resistance test with VDE Catalouge 228/4 resistance....

Insulating concrete is a material designed to reduce heat conduction with pores/insulations, and these pores strongly affect the material characteristics. In general, the insulation effect is directly proportion to the pore volume, while the material strength decreases as the porosity increases. To overcome this contrary, anisotropic insulations with different spatial distributions are proposed...

According to the European prestandard ENV 342:1998, the thermal insulation of cold-protective clothing is measured with a thermal manikin. Systematic studies on the reproducibility of the values, measured with different types of clothing on the commonly used standing and walking manikins, have not been reported in the literature. Over 300 measurements were done in 8 different European laborator...

In a graph G, a k-insulated set S is a subset of the vertices of G such that every vertex in S is adjacent to at most k vertices in S, and every vertex outside S is adjacent to at least k + 1 vertices in S. The insulation sequence i0, i1, i2, . . . of a graph G is defined by setting ik equal to the maximum cardinality of a k-insulated set in G. We determine the insulation sequence for paths, cy...

Magnet coil insulation consists of inorganic materials such as glass fiber, fillers, and organic thermosetting resins. Most of the usual insulation systems are damaged if subjected to high radiation levels such as those anticipated at the Stanford Linear Accelerator, where the expected dose rate may be as high as lOi rads per year. This paper describes tests carried out at SLAC in which several...
