Abstract
This study was carried out to analyze heat transfer characteristics and heat flow through air-inflated double layer PO film with thermal resistance method. The experiments was conducted in the laboratory controlled air temperature between 258.0 K and 278.0 K. The experimental materials were made up two layers PO film and an inflated-air layer. The thickness of air-inflated layer was fixed at 3 types of 110, 175, 225 mm. The electrical circuit analogy for heat transfer by conduction, radiation and convection was introduced. Experimental data shows that the dominant thermal resistance in heat transfer through the air-inflated double layer film was convection. Calculation errors were 1.1~18.5 W for heat flow. In result, the method of thermal resistance could be introduced for analysis of heat flow characteristics through air-inflated double layer film.
