Abstract
In this study, the change of heat loss due to the degree of deterioration of the XPS insulation in KEPCO's office buildings is analyzed. The acceleration aging test of the XPS insulation was carried out according to the test method A of KS M ISO 11561: 2009. The performance of the insulation was analyzed by applying it to the three - dimensional steady state heat transfer analysis program. The acceleration aging test of the XPS insulation, show that the thermal resistance performance decreased by 1.44% at the A regional headquarters, 0.85% at the B regional headquarters, 6.41% at the C branch office, 7.76% at the D regional headquarters, 8.51% at the E branch office, and by 8.54% at the F branch office respectively. Using simulation, we determined that the thermal resistance value of E branch office decreased by 8.04%, while its heat loss increased by 8.52%. At A regional headquarters, the thermal resistance decreased by 1.38%, and the heat loss increased by 1.51%. At D regional headquarters, these value are 6.82% and 7.17%, respectively.
