George Harpster:IP:198.120.*.*Time:2026-06-16 00:02
name: George Harpster Company:NASA Glenn Research Center / HX5 Country:USA content:I need low cost rolls of blankets that can handle 1500 F to wrap around 100 feet long 54" OD piping for up to 9" of insulation thickness. It will be covered with aluminum jacketing.
How does the density affect the thermal conductivity? k is always given for the high density materials but how does lower density affect k? Is it better (less heat flow) with lower density or higher heat flow? How should I scale the thermal conductivity based on density?
