Brosnan2 Journal of ASTM International, Vol. 7, No. 4 Paper ID JAI102726 Available online at www.astm.org Improving the Thermal Resistance of Brick Masonry Systems ABSTRACT: Finite element modeling was used to relate the coring or cell con guration of brick to the heat ow through...

... as to produce meaningful results. Efforts to produce a more prescriptive version of the ASTM C1303, “Standard Test Method for Predicting Long-Term Thermal Resistance of Closed-Cell Foam Insulation,” have led to a broad ruggedness test. This test includes the aging of full-size insulation specimens for time...

KEYWORDS: bearings, thermal conductance, thermal resistance, solid lubrication, dry, oil lubrication, static, dynamic Nomenclature G Conductance across the bearing N Number of balls in the bearing Ri thermal resistance...

... presents experimental results from an ongoing pilot research study that critically evaluates the ASTM C 1289-02 specification requirements for the ISO on three engineering properties: (1) dimensional stability, (2) thermal resistance, and (3) compressive strength. Preliminary results from this study reveal...

...David W. Yarbrough; Ronald S. Graves The methods commonly used for determining the thermal resistance of insulations in wall cavities do not include the effect of air movement through the insulation. Contributions to the total building heating or cooling load include the change in enthalpy of air...
