Proper
Selection and Design of Insulation Systems
Presentation
Summary:
Below
ambient systems cover a wide range of applications and require special
consideration vs hot systems. Insulation selection to prevent
condensation requires a review of many factors other than those just
found on a data sheet. Environmental and application parameters must
be considered as well as the end customers expectations.
Various applications from chilled water, refrigeration to cryogenic
and duct applications will be explored. Outdoor applications
require additional criteria. Several new products /options
which have come on the market recently to improve the cost /
performance of these type of systems will be discussed.
