Özet

The purpose of heat insulation is to minimize the heat transfer between the interior and external\renvironment. Besides, it helps to prevent the structure of the constructions from the harmful heat effects\rbecause of heat transfer. This study presents an alternative method to achieve heat insulation in concrete\rwalls. 4 various heat insulation materials as wood shavings, fiberglass, granule rubber, and styrofoam were\radded into the concrete wall parts and an enclosed volume was created using those. The interior\rtemperature of the enclosed volume increased using resistance and the temperature was measured with a\rthermocouple as well. In order to calculate the thermal conductivity of heat-insulated walls, measured\rtemperature, power consumption, and surface area were used. As a result, it was shown that the wood\rshavings insulation in concrete had a lower thermal conductivity coefficient as 2,51 W/mK than others and\rmuch efficiency as well. In addition, the uncertainty of the thermal conductivity coefficient was calculated\rapproximately about ± 0,204 for all type of walls. Besides, the presented methodology could help to prevent\rlacking energy resources and to save economical incomes.
