Abstract:
The possibility of using vacuum insulation panels (VIP) with a granular filler for the manufacture of threelayer enclosing wall panels, floor slabs and coatings is considered. The results of experimental studies of vacuum insulation panels, carried out with the aim of analytically describing the deformation diagrams of VIP panels under the action of a compressive load, are presented. It has been established: deformative properties of vacuum insulation panels with granular filler do not depend on the size of the filler particles, but depend on the volume content of the filler; a deformation diagram describing the relationship between stresses and relative deformations during compression of a vacuum insulating panel with a granular filler can be approximated by the function G. B. Bülfinger. The results obtained make it possible by calculation to determine the stress state in flat plating sheets during local load transfer.

Abstract:
VIP (Vacuum insulation panel), as a high performance insulation component, combine with limited thickness, have recently been introduced to numerous energy conservation applications. VIP consists of a highly insulating core material and a gas tight barrier envelope which is generally composed of plastic film and aluminum film. When the envelope is stainless steel sheet, VIP is called VIS (vacuum insulation sandwich). Because of this hardly permeable rigid barrier, VIS presents more fantastic properties such as resistance against external mechanical loads and penetration of atmospheric gases and water vapor. Consequently, the service life of VIS is significantly longer than that of VIP. Detailed structure and some practical applications of VIS elements are also reviewed in this paper.

Abstract:
Vacuum insulation panels have values of thermal conductivity that are extremely low ∼4mW/ms˙K compared to the thermal conductivity of most common insulations. Typical ASTM test methods are not designed for testing these very low thermal conductivity materials. An apparatus has been built and tested that uses a thin foil heater and vacuum chamber to test vacuum insulation panels. Several different measurement configurations are studied to determine the effects of the parasitic heat losses. The differences between the ASTM standards and this technique are described and the rationale explained. A new ASTM technique for vacuum panels appears to be needed.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to consider the possibility of using microsilica - waste of aluminum production, as filler in a vacuum insulation panel. The properties of silicon dioxide powder have been studied, and compositions and manufacturing technology of vacuum thermal insulation panels on its base have been developed. Differential thermal analysis of powders is carried out; the curves of differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric analysis, x-ray phase analysis are obtained. The microstructure of the samples is investigated. The thermal conductivity of the manufactured panels is measured. The test results suggest that for the manufacture of low–vacuum insulation panels of microsilica powders, waste production of crystalline silicon can be used. The use of waste in the future can become the basis for the production of high-quality vacuum insulation with low cost.

Vacuum insulation panels are distinguished by their outstandingly low thermal conductivity, which is approximately 0.004 W/ (m • K) to 0.01 W/ (m • K), only 33% to 10% of that of the traditional heat preservation materials. The heat preservation mechanism of vacuum insulation panels is elaborated in the study. The thermal conductivity of the vacuum insulation panel made in our lab were below 0.01 W/ (m • K). By analysis and calculation, with this kind of VIPs applied to refrigerated containers, its exciting properties can save energy consumption by more than 20% compared with traditional heat preservation materials.

Abstract:
The trend of achieving sustainable development in the area of new, eco-friendly materials remains topical for many experts concerned with developing new materials applicable worldwide in civil engineering as well as elsewhere. Our research team has for many years been developing non-traditional materials that meet the current requirements. These materials are made with organic fibers – waste natural fibers produced by agriculture or waste industrial (locally produced) fibers. Their thermal and acoustic insulation properties are very close to those of conventional insulation materials (expanded polystyrene, extruded polystyrene, mineral wool, polyurethane foam), which are still finding broad use in the Czech Republic despite their harmful impact on the environment. The paper focuses on the various uses of several types of textile fibers (mainly by-products) in the development of modern insulation materials with a high value added. These materials bear several specific advantages over conventional insulations, which enable, among others, easier installation. Some of the newly developed insulations can also be used as core insulations in the manufacture of vacuum insulation panels (VIP).

Abstract:
In most thermal insulation materials, reduced internal pressure improves thermal insulation properties. It reduces heat transport by convection as well as heat conduction in gases in the material´s pore structure. The dependence of thermal conductivity on pressure is individual to every type of insulation with open porosity. In general, a material with fine porosity is not very sensitive to pressure change within the range of very low pressure to vacuum. On the other hand, materials with a larger number of bigger pores are more sensitive to changing pressure. Any pressure change between atmosphere pressure and vacuum causes a change in thermal conductivity. The paper presents the results of an investigation into the behaviour of alternative fibrous insulations usable in the production of vacuum insulation panels at low pressure.

Abstract:
Vacuum insulation panels (VIP) currently belong to a group of so-called super-insulating materials. These are special products with an extremely low equivalent value of the thermal conductivity coefficient. Despite this fact, the use of VIP in the construction industry is rather problematic. The main issue is the relatively complicated VIP integration into building structures, as well as the limited VIP durability. The issue of durability is also one of the main topics of VIP development and research in this field. The paper describes the possibilities of using CaO to increase the durability of vacuum insulation panels.

Abstract:
This article examines a new lightweight, slim, high energy efficient, light-transmitting, self-supporting envelope system, providing for seamless, free-form designs for use in architectural projects. The system exploits vacuum insulation panel technology. The research was based on envelope components already existing on the market and patents and prototypes built by independent laboratories, especially components implemented with silica gel insulation, as this is the most effective transparent thermal insulation there is today. The tests run on these materials revealed that there is not one that has all the features required of the new envelope model, although some do have properties that could be exploited to generate this envelope, namely, the vacuum chamber of vacuum insulation panels, the use of monolithic aerogel as insulation in some prototypes, and reinforced polyester barriers. These three design components have been combined and tested to design a new, variable geometry, energy-saving envelope system that also solves many of the problems that other studies ascribe to the use of vacuum insulation panels.

Abstract:
Using thermal insulation materials to reduce energy loss in buildings is a key action. For reducing the building’s energy use, firstly, the internal unheated spaces (attics, cellars) should be insulated, followed by the insulation of the external walls, and changing the doors and windows. Finally, the building can be completed with the renovation/maintenance of its service systems. Newly designed and constructed buildings are subject to increasingly strict regulations, which highlight the minimization and elimination of wasteful energy use and the resulting emissions of harmful substances. Therefore, the use of thermal insulation is the first step in making buildings more energy efficient. In this editorial, seven articles covering thermal insulation possibilities and topics are highlighted. This paper reflected on the use of thermal insulations both for internal and external applications. This editorial also promotes the use of super insulation materials such as aerogels and vacuum insulation panels; furthermore, the possible applications of bio-based insulations are also endorsed. In this paper, the sound insulation capabilities of some materials are also emphasized, and they will be presented from the point of view of cost.

Abstract:
Vacuum insulation panel is regarded as one of the most promising high performance thermal insulation materials for green building. It has extremely low thermal conductivity and its insulation performance is a factor of four to eight times better than that of conventional insulation such as mineral wool or polymer foams. The high thermal resistivity of VIP provides new solutions for slim but still energy efficient building envelopes. Although VIP has widely been used in refrigerators and freezers for a long time, it has only recently been discovered by the building sector. There is not yet any alternative for conventional thermal insulation materials in many countries, especially in China. This paper attempts to investigate the components, features and advantages of VIP for building, it will be helpful to the development of green building.

Abstract:
The performance of vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) is strongly affected by several factors, such as panel thickness, design, quality of vacuum, and material type. In particular, the core materials inside VIPs significantly influence their overall performance. Despite their superior insulation performance, VIPs are limited in their widespread use as structural materials, because of their low material strength and the relatively expensive core materials. As an alternative core material that can compensate these limitations, foamed concrete, a type of lightweight concrete with very low density, can be used. In this study, two different types of foamed concrete were used as VIP core materials, with their effects on the thermal behavior of the VIPs having been evaluated using experimental and numerical methods. To confirm and generate numerical models for VIP analysis, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was utilized. The obtained results show that insulation effects increase effectively when panels with lightweight concrete are in a vacuum, and both foamed concrete types can be effectively used as VIP core materials.

Abstract:
Abstract Investigating switchable vacuum insulation panels might lead to a new type of insulation, which can be switched on to enable a low heat flow when a good insulation effect is desired and switched off when exchange with the environment is requested, during a cold summer night, for example. For this reason, different core materials for vacuum insulations as typical silica powder were investigated as well as silica agglomerates and silica gel. These materials were checked for the necessary time of aeration and evacuation and the corresponding change of heat conductivity along with the change of gas-pressure. Silica gel in combination with helium as filling gas showed best results corresponding to a high difference of the heat conductivities evacuated and aerated. Beside the solid backbone structure of the silica gel, this is caused by the high heat conductivity and small kinetic atomic diameter of the helium gas. Silica agglomerates decreased the aeration time as well as the deaeration time, but the improvement was neglected because of a lower change of heat conductivity during pressure drop or rise. Nevertheless, a good switchable vacuum insulation can be produced using silica gel and helium, for example.

Abstract:
To explore the lightweight structures with excellent vibration and acoustic properties, corrugated composite panels with different fiber reinforcements, i.e., carbon and glass fibers, were designed and fabricated using a modified vacuum-assisted resin infusion (VARI) process. The vibration and sound transmission loss (STL) of the corrugated composite panels were investigated via mode and sound insulation tests, respectively. Meanwhile, finite element models were proposed for the verification and in-depth parametric studies. For the vibration properties of the corrugated composite panels, the results indicated that the resin layer on the panel surface, despite the extremely low thickness, showed a significant effect on the low-order bend modes of the entire structure. In addition, the difference in the mode frequency between the panels consisting of different fiber types became more and more apparent with the increase of the frequency levels. For the sound insulation property of the panel, the initial frequency of the panel’s resonant sound transmission can be conveniently increased by increasing the layer thickness of surface resin, and the fraction of fiber reinforcements is the most predominant factor for the sound insulation property, which was significantly improved by increasing the thickness of the fiber cloth. This work can provide fundamental support for the comprehensive design of vibration and acoustics of the composite sandwiched panel.

Abstract:
The results of studying the mechanical properties of vacuum insulation panels are presented. The compressive strength and deformation modules (elastic and secant) under compression and shear are determined. The dependence of the mechanical characteristics of vacuum insulation panels (VIP) on the type and quantitative ratio of fillers is shown. It is established that the diagram of deformation of the VIP under compression can be described by an analytical function. Experimental studies of the properties of VIP have established that the deformation diagram of VIP has the form characteristic for materials that self-strengthen during loading with a compressive load and is adequately described by the function of G. V. Bulfinger. A method is proposed for determining the coefficients α and β that makes it possible to verify the approximating function using experimental data. Polynomial models describing the dependence of the elastic modulus, strength, and thermal conductivity coefficient on the composition and quantitative ratio of fiber and powder fillers are developed. It is established that the numerical values of the strain modulus depend on the type, amount of powder filler, and their ratio to the fibrous filler. The values of strain and strength models increase with increasing content and size of filler particles. A method for determining the shear modulus for VIP has been developed. It has been experimentally established that the value of the shear modulus for VIP depends on both the filler composition and the characteristics of the panel film shell.

Abstract:
This study is devoted to the possibility of using advanced insulation materials, such as Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIP), in the insulation and reconstruction of buildings, in connection with the green elements that are installed on the facade in the case of the use of external thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS). The use of VIP as part of the insulation system will result in a significant reduction in the required thickness of the insulation layer. In turn, the reduced overall thickness of the system will allow for easier direct anchoring of the elements of the green facade through the insulating layer to the base of the structure. The research carried out proves that, by using VIP in the insulation system (with a VIP thickness of 30 mm in combination with 20 mm of extruded polystyrene XPS), the thermal insulation properties can be significantly improved and, thus, the thickness of the insulation system can be reduced to 1/3 of the thickness of conventional insulation (while achieving the same thermal resistance), thereby enabling the anchoring of green elements on the surface of such an insulation system.

Abstract:
The development of high performance insulating materials incorporating nanotechnologies has enabled considerable decrease in the effective thermal conductivity. Besides the use of conventional insulating materials, such as mineral fibers, the adoption of new nano-technological materials such as aerogel, vacuum insulation panels, graphite expanded polystyrene, is growing. In order to reduce the thermal conductivity of polystyrene insulation materials, during the manufacturing, nano/micro-sized graphite particles are added to the melt of the polystyrene grains. The mixing of graphite flakes into the polystyrene mould further reduces the lambda value, since graphite parts significantly reflect the radiant part of the thermal energy. In this study, laboratory tests carried out on graphite insulation materials are presented. Firstly, thermal conductivity results are described, and then sorption kinetic curves at high moisture content levels are shown. The moisture up-taking behaviour of the materials was investigated with a climatic chamber where the relative humidity was 90% at 293 K temperature. Finally, calorific values of the samples are presented after combusting in a bomb calorimeter.

Abstract:
This contribution reports on recent advances in the utilization of vacuum glass in contemporary window construction. Generally speaking, vacuum glazing consists of two glass panes with an evacuated interstitial space. To maintain the functionality of the glazing, a vacuum-tight edge seal and a grid of distance-holding pillars are required. Vacuum glazing features a first-rate thermal performance as it significantly reduces conductive and convective heat transport rates. In comparison to multi-pane insulation glasses of comparable thermal performance, vacuum glass products feature a reduced weight and construction depth. However, the application of vacuum glass in windows requires a critical rethinking of the current practice of window construction, especially with regard to thermal bridges and the related surface condensation risk at the glass/frame-construction joints. Specifically, the glass edge seal, which can be considered to be the weak spot of vacuum glass in terms of heat transfer, requires an insulating cover that is not provided in typical insulation glass frame configurations. Further relevant aspects to be considered include the structural stability of window constructions with vacuum glass, the acoustical performance, and issues regarding usability. In this context, the present contribution highlights the methodology and findings of two recent research projects (MOTIVE, FIVA) that addressed window construction requirements with regard to vacuum glazing deployment.

Abstract:
Abstract Vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) offer 8-10 times the thermal resistance of fiberglass insulation and would fit the need for a low conductivity exterior insulation. A composite insulation panel using VIPs encased in rigid foam was developed, built, and tested. Two different sizes of VIPs were used for that stage of the project, and after monitoring and evaluation, they showed contrasting results. A simulation study was performed to find the optimal VIP solution that maximized the effective thermal conductivity and minimized the mould growth potential. In total, 5 wall assemblies with VIPs used as the exterior insulation were simulated using WUFI and WUFI2D. The simulations showed that the humidity levels at the inside face of the OSB inboard of the VIPs decreased when 200 mm by 300 mm VIPs were used, but they did not reach the thermal performance thresholds of R5.28 m2K/W. The hygrothermal analysis showed that under similar conditions, a VIP insulated wall assembly would have a lower relative humidity at the sheathing surface compared to EPS and XPS. The one-and two-dimensional simulations were compared and found that WUFI Pro was capable to evaluate a VIP-insulated wall assembly.

Abstract:
The main purpose of this paper is to present the use of super thermal insulation materials for a historical building through a calculation-based case study. The development of the insulation materials is based on the objective of making buildings as energy efficient as possible, and the energy loss should be kept to a minimum, for both new and existing buildings. For this purpose, the thermal insulation materials used so far have not always achieved maximum effectiveness. In the case of historical buildings, it is particularly difficult to solve insulation issues, as the building cannot lose its former appearance. However, aerogel and vacuum insulation panels can also be used as thin thermal protective layers. In this paper, we will specifically deal with the presentation of the possible application of super thermal insulation materials, such as vacuum insulation panels and aerogels. We will present thermal conductivity measurement results as well as their application through building energetic calculations applied to a historical building as a case study. We will also present certain calculations regarding the costs. The paper highlights that savings of energy costs of approximately 30% can be reached using vacuum insulation sandwich panels. Furthermore, the overall thermal transmittance of the building also decreases by about 35% if vacuum insulation sandwich panels are used for the refurbishment.

Abstract:
The insulation material VIP in building offers a new material for highly insulated constructions with just a fraction of the required insulation thickness compared to conventional thermal insulation materials. A VIP is basically composed of the core material, the barrier film and getters. Core materials of VIP are glass fiber, fumed silica, fiber-powder composite core. The barrier film covered by glass fiber textile is the protection of the envelope against surface damage and fire attack. We introduce the VIP elements, the system of VIPs in building application and external thermal insulation system with VIP.

Abstract:
Thermal insulation is one of the most used approaches to reduce energy consumption in buildings. Vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) are new thermal insulation materials that have been used in the domestic and overseas market in the last 20 years. Due to the vacuum thermal insulation technology of these new materials, their thermal conductivity can be as low as 0.004 W/(m·K) at the center of panels. In addition, VIPs that are composites with inorganic core and an envelope out of commonly three metallized PET layers and a PE sealing layer can provide B class fire resistance (their core materials are not flammable and are classified as A1). Compared with other conventional thermal insulation materials, the thermal insulation and fire resistance performances form the foundation of VIP’s applications in the construction industry. The structure and thermal insulation mechanism of VIP and their application potential and problems in Chinese buildings are described in detail.

Abstract:
One of the measures to reduce energy consumption in buildings in Nordic countries is limiting the window area, as windows contribute to significantly higher heat loss than walls during a long hot season. This conflicts with user needs for daylight and views out, especially in buildings situated in dense urban areas. The purpose of the project was to test if dynamic insulation can be used to reduce heat loss through windows during periods when view out is not needed. The paper presents a new dynamic insulation system for windows in a form of an exterior sliding shutter. The development of the system started from an existing poorly insulating sliding door system that has been equipped with vacuum insulation panels and re-designed according to the new purpose. The new system was both numerically simulated using THERM and tested in full-scale in a Hot-box apparatus at the laboratory of SINTEF Building and Infrastructure. The results are promising and encourage further development towards a commercial product.

Abstract:
Vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) are regarded as one of the most promising high-performance thermal insulation solutions on the market today. In this paper, a novel structure, i.e., honeycomb glassfiber mat was proposed as the core material of VIP. The honeycomb glassfiber mat was composed of glass wool mat and glassfiber chopped strand mat. Among them, 70% centrifugal glass wool and 30% flame attenuated glass wool were mixed together to form the 0.5mm-thickness glass wool mat, while thirteen holes with diameter of 10mm were opened uniformly on the surface of glassfiber chopped strand mat. Glassfiber VIPs possessed honeycomb core material have superior thermal conductivity of 1.52mW/(m•K). In order to obtain better thermal insulation performance, ultrafine and stiff fibers with three-dimensional overlapping structure is preferable. Meanwhile, hollow fibers with bifurcated structure are the guarantee of high-strength core material.

Abstract:
Rigid polyurethane foam, foam concrete, and vacuum insulation board are common roofing insulation materials. Their weathering performance under long-term multi-field coupling determines the overall service life of the roof. The weathering properties of rigid polyurethane foam, foam concrete and vacuum insulation panels were studied under freeze thaw, humid-heat, dry-wet, high-low temperature, and multi-field coupling cycles, respectively. The heat transfer and construction process of roof panels was simulated base on upper loading and moisture transfer factors. The result indicates that the mass loss of the foam concrete and the rigid polyurethane foam in the weathering test was significant, which led to the gradual increase of thermal conductivity. Meanwhile, the thermal conductivity and mass loss of vacuum insulation panels did not change due to the lack of penetration under external pressure, therefore, it is necessary to construct composite thermal–insulation materials to alleviate the adverse effects of the service environment on a single material and realize the complementary advantages and disadvantages of the two materials. The results of the numerical simulations indicated that the roof structure must be waterproofed, and its weatherproof performance index should be the same as that of the thermal insulation material. Considering structural deformation, the overall heat transfer performance of the product was increased by around 5%.
