 INTRODUCTION

The specific application examples selected relate to the building sector. Heat loss through a wall (separating element) depends on :

  • the thermal resistance of the insulation used;

  • the insulation technique used, in relation to the application conditions, which can vary considerably from one case to another (static or dynamic insulation, positioning in relation to thermal bridges, etc.).

By way of example, the applications mentioned will take account of the second aspect.
