Description
This standard sets out a method for determining the steady-state thermal transmission properties of thermal insulation materials within the limits set by Clause 5, by means of a heat flow meter.
Scope
Notes:
- This is a secondary or comparative method for measuring the thermal transmission properties of specimen(s), since only the ratio of the thermal resistance of the specimen(s) to that of a standard specimen(s) is measured. The thermal resistances of the standard specimens must be determined in accordance with AS 2464.6.
- For purposes of certification, this method is limited to specimens with thermal resistances greater than 0.10 m2.K/W in any direction.
