Based on the causes identified for heat transfer, the following general principles govern the thermal insulation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Materials of low thermal conductivity have to be adopted. That is the material used should have adequate heat insulation value.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. As the thermal resistance of a material is directly varies with the thickness and so the material to be provided should have adequate thickness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Provision of open spaces like cavity walls provides excellent means of thermal insulation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. External exposure of windows, ventilators and doors play a major role and hence the orientation of the building and positioning of doors and windows play a vital role.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. To some extent thermal insulation can be achieved by providing sunshades, increasing the height of parapet walls, etc., can reduce the heat transfer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
