  1. Experimental Wallboard: R-Value Validation Paul Gollnick Dave Garrett Will Watson 8/13/07

  2. Overview • Objective • Test 1- Conduction apparatus • Test 2- Tube Test • Test 3- Hot Plate • Recommendations • Conclusion

  3. Objective 1. Wallboard Testing: The purpose of this series of experiments was to determine the heat transfer coefficient and associated R-value for standard ½” composite wallboard 2. Group: Our objective was to evaluate the problems associated with testing and suggest a more appropriate test method

  4. Test 1: Conduction Apparatus Set Up #1 Set Up #2

  5. Set Up #1 Data

  6. Test #1 Analysis

  7. Test #2 Data

  8. Test # 2 Analysis

  9. Test 2: Tube Test

  10. Test 3: Hot Plate

  11. Hot Plate Analysis

  12. Recommendations • Perform test #1 run #1 with aluminum foil and or saran wrap enclosed in duct tape to trap dead air space as an insulator • When running test #1 use lube to eliminate contact resistance • Consider the time it takes to reach steady state, not just what happens at steady state • Make boxes of the material and fill them with ice to test which one lasts longest • Try different thicknesses of the material and run it without the paper

  13. Conclusion • Objective • Test 1- Conduction apparatus • Test 2- Tube Test • Test 3- Hot Plate • Recommendations • Conclusion
