  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. Lankford coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lankford_coefficient

    The Lankford coefficient (also called Lankford value, R-value, or plastic strain ratio) [1] is a measure of the plastic anisotropy of a rolled sheet metal. This scalar quantity is used extensively as an indicator of the formability of recrystallized low-carbon steel sheets.

  6. Polyisocyanurate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyisocyanurate

    The generalised chemical structure of polyisocyanurate showing the isocyanurate group. The polyols are abbreviated as R-groups.. Polyisocyanurate (/ ˌ p ɒ l ɪ ˌ aɪ s oʊ s aɪ ˈ æ nj ʊər eɪ t /), also referred to as PIR, polyol, or ISO, is a thermoset plastic [1] typically produced as a foam and used as rigid thermal insulation.

  7. Rigid panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_panel

    Polyisocyanurate (also known as polyiso). More stable at high temperatures and less flammable than polyurethane. Higher R-value vs. polystyrene and polyurethane due to its gas-filled closed-cell foam structure. Denser and more rigid than polystyrene panels, but more expensive. Must protect from prolonged exposure to water.

  8. R-value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value

    R-factor (crystallography), a measure of the agreement between the crystallographic model and the diffraction data; R 0 or R number, the basic reproduction number in epidemiology; In computer science, a pure value which cannot be assigned to; In statistics, the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, or simply correlation coefficient ...

    2. How does "R-value" relate to "U-value" (used in the UK building code -- here, a link would be more helpful to me)? Thanks 77.96.64.84 22:55, 7 March 2007 (UTC) Have put in an anchor [| On the R-value page]. I would have been happy to have seen that anchor and the section title that goes with it there. It is now.
