Abstract

In this paper the heat transfer across two large cell honeycomb transparent insulation panels of identical dimensions is investigated. Experimental measurements with a guarded heat flux apparatus show that a honeycomb made from cellulose acetate offers almost twice the resistance to heat flow than one made of polypropylene. A numerical calculation of the coupled radiative conductive heat ransfer suggests this difference is due to the difference in thermal radiation absorptance of the honeycomb cell walls.
