2. Thermal insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_insulation

   Heat flow is an inevitable consequence of contact between objects of different temperature. Thermal insulation provides a region of insulation in which thermal conduction is reduced, creating a thermal break or thermal barrier, [2] or thermal radiation is reflected rather than absorbed by the lower-temperature body.

3. Plenum space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plenum_space

   Vertical section through a commercial building using HVAC plenum instead of airspace plenum. When both the supply and return ducts are constructed in this manner, it is possible to insulate the ducts and the dropped ceiling so that the upper airspace is not heated or cooled, increasing energy efficiency. This is a fully enclosed plenum.

   A dirty filter can restrict airflow and reduce the appliance's heating capabilities. You should also check the thermostat settings to ensure that they weren't unintentionally set to a lower ...

5. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

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

   Installed faced fiberglass batt insulation with its R-value visible (R-21) [1]. The R-value is a measure of how well a two-dimensional barrier, such as a layer of insulation, a window or a complete wall or ceiling, resists the conductive [2] flow of heat, in the context of construction. [3]

6. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

   Insulation is a barrier material to resist/reduce substance (water, vapor, etc. ) /energy (sound, heat, electric, etc.) to transfer from one side to another. Heat/ Thermal Insulation is a barrier material to resist / block / reflect the heat energy (either one or more of the Conduction, Convection or Radiation) to transfer from one side to another.

7. Duct (flow) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_(flow)

   Ducts for air pollution control in a 17000 standard cubic feet per minute regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO). A round galvanized steel duct connecting to a typical diffuser Fire-resistance rated mechanical shaft with HVAC sheet metal ducting and copper piping, as well as "HOW" (Head-Of-Wall) joint between top of concrete block wall and underside of concrete slab, firestopped with ceramic ...
