Does a layer of animals fat conduct or insulate thermal energy?
it insulates thermal anergy and keeps the warm in
Does an animals fat conduct or insulate thermal energy?
it insulates ans keeps it in
What is a hot water tank jacket?
It is a thermal jacket that fits over the tank to insulate it
What materials would insulate thermal energy?
plastic,rubber,foam,anything that is thick and is the oppisite of a conductor
What is thermal risistance?
Thermal resistance is a measure of a material's ability to resist the flow of heat through it. It is used to quantify how well a material can insulate against heat transfer. A lower thermal resistance value indicates better thermal insulation properties.
Is it necessary to insulate pipes and air duct located inside a building thermal envelope?
well depending on the type of building and also depending on how old the building possibly is could depend on weather or not you would need to insulate the pipes.
Where can one find information on thermal insulation?
One can find information on thermal insulation from Insulate, Government site called Energywise, Energy Star, British Gas and Energy websites. Thermal insulation is used to reduce heat transfer from one object to the other.
What is a good title for our science fair project if our question is Does the shade of your hair have an effect on its ability to insulate your body?
thermal insulating properties of hair pigmentation
How do airplanes insulate heat?
Thermal insulation is the method of inhibiting the transfer of thermal energy from one area to another. In other words, thermal insulation can keep an enclosed area such as a building warm, or it can keep the inside of a container cold.Heat is transferred by from one material to another by conduction, convection and/or radiation. Insulators are used to minimize that transfer of heat energy. In home insulation, the R-value is an indication of how well a material insulates.That's Why airplanes insulate heat.Thank you, Good Luck
What is the prefix of insulate?
there is no prefix of insulate because the root word is insulate
Is a thermometer a thermal insulator?
It depends on the material out of which the dish is made. Materials are considered conductive if they transfer heat faster than the surrounding medium and insulators of the transfer heat slower than the surrounding medium. If the medium is air, a glass dish will be a thermal insulator but a metal dish will be a thermal conductor.The rate at which heat flows through a material is related to its thermal conductivity.
Which metal can oppose the temperature?
I do not really understand your question. What do you mean by "oppose the temperature"?If you mean insulate or have a low coefficient of thermal conductivity then there are several alloys which conduct heat less than most other metals. Some stainless steels for example have relatively low thermal conductivity.
