If you are referring to the R value of insulation, then 10 would be the 'thermal resistance' value of the insulation. A value of 10 is about what 3 1/2 inches of fiberglass batt insulation would give you. That is what you might put within your exterior walls if you are using wood studs. The higher the R value the better insulation you will have. When you add up all of the R values of the materials that make up your exterior wall you will get your total value. Depending on where your building is located, and the climate in that area, you will need to adjust your insulation accordingly.

insulation value is much greater in double glazed windows. Double glazed windows filters the light and gives a cooler atmosphere.

It depends on the species of wood, but a good average insulation value is R1.5 per inch. So, you would need 10 inches of boards just to get to R15. Often, making sure to stop the escaping air in this area is more important than the insulation value.
The U value is the inverse of the R value. For R value 19 insulation the U value is 1/19, or 0.0526.
While drywall, or gypsum board, does give insulation value it is not a high amount, a 1/2" piece of drywall will only raise the r-value by .45, if you are looking to improve the insulation of a wall you are much better off using rigid foam insulation. An extruded polystyrene board, that's Styrofoam, of 1" thickness gives you an R-value of 5.00, which is over 5 times greater per inch than that of drywall. You can further improve the insulation value of a wall by add some kind of batt insulation in-between the studs.
it is a good thing i think R Value is the thermal resistance of a given material. The higher the R Value the more thermal resistance and the better the insulation. So, an R48 roof system is warmer than an R32 roof system. All insulation materials are rated by their R Value. An inch of rigid insulation has a higher R Value than an inch of fiberglass insulation. Check with the insulation manufacturer for the R Value.
It is the measure of insulation against heat/cold afforded by varying thicknesses and composition of construction insulation materials. The higher the "R" Value the better the insulation characteristics.
Floors, attics and walls all require insulation of different R-Values which are measured by the thickness of the insulation. The R-Value determines how well the insulation will resist heat flow. The higher the R-Value the more resistance it has to heat and cold. If you are adding to existing insulation there is another factor to consider. You will have to determine the R-Value of the existing to know how much additional insulation to add
An insulation material is one which separates one region from another. Common uses would be electrical insulation, thermal insulation, and acoustic insulation.
Fiberglass Insulation, R Value of 3.14. Pine board has an R Value of 1.74

Insulation resistance test: This test is used to find the insulation resistance of motor for 1 min or 10 min through high voltage insulation tester. By this we can find the insulation level. Polarization index: This is the ratio between insulation resistance for 10 min to insulation resistance for 1 min.
it depends on the r-value of the insulation and the area or temperature range of the climate it is to be installed
