Thermal Conductivity Of Concrete Block Wall

Common small sized concrete.

Thermal conductivity of concrete block wall.

Dense aggregate light aggregate and cellular aircrete sometimes known as aerated concrete. C l k. Mud brick 300mm block 0 40. Low conductivity and structural concrete low thermally conductive concrete is proven to improve energy performance in buildings.

The compressive strength of 500 grade is 2 3 0 mpa. Dense aggregate blocks consist of cement sand and various aggregates such as barite magnetite iron or lead pellets and has a typical thermal conductivity of 0 70 1 30 w mk. Wall material overall r value. To reduce energy consumption and protect the environment a type of hollow shale block with 29 rows of holes was designed and produced.

Thermal conductivity of polystyrene. C k w is the thermal resistance of the concrete section l m is the thickness of the section in the direction of the heat flux k. C w m k is the concrete thermal conductivity and. Aerated concrete 100mm block 0 78.

This paper investigated the thermal properties of hollow shale blocks and walls. Dense aggregate concrete blocks are manufactured from cement sand and aggregates. First the guarding heat box method was used to obtain the heat transfer coefficient of the hollow shale block walls. 400 x 250 x 200mm l x w x h 3.
