  2. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    The R-value is the building industry term [3] for thermal resistance "per unit area." [4] It is sometimes denoted RSI-value if the SI units are used. [5] An R-value can be given for a material (e.g. for polyethylene foam), or for an assembly of materials (e.g. a wall or a window). In the case of materials, it is often expressed in terms of R ...

  3. Coefficient of determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_determination

    Ordinary least squares regression of Okun's law.Since the regression line does not miss any of the points by very much, the R 2 of the regression is relatively high.. In statistics, the coefficient of determination, denoted R 2 or r 2 and pronounced "R squared", is the proportion of the variation in the dependent variable that is predictable from the independent variable(s).

  4. Thermal conductance and resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductance_and...

    Thermal insulance (R-value) is a measure of a material's resistance to the heat current. It quantifies how effectively a material can resist the transfer of heat through conduction, convection, and radiation.

  5. R-value (soils) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(soils)

    The R-value of a material is determined when the material is in a state of saturation such that water will be exuded from the compacted test specimen when a 16.8 kN load (2.07 MPa) is applied. Since it is not always possible to prepare a test specimen that will exude water at the specified load, it is necessary to test a series of specimens ...

  6. R-value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value

    R-value or rvalue may refer to: R-value (insulation) in building engineering, the efficiency of insulation of a house; R-value (soils) in geotechnical engineering, the stability of soils and aggregates for pavement construction; R-factor (crystallography), a measure of the agreement between the crystallographic model and the diffraction data

  9. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    R = Resistance(s) to heat flow in pipe wall (K/W) Other parameters are as above. [16] The heat transfer coefficient is the heat transferred per unit area per kelvin. Thus area is included in the equation as it represents the area over which the transfer of heat takes place. The areas for each flow will be different as they represent the contact ...
