Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs) represent the cutting edge of energy efficiency, but even the best designs can be undermined by hidden thermal bridges in laminate materials. In our latest case study, we explore how Nantong Ecotherm Insulations partnered with EKO Instruments to move beyond traditional testing toward a precise numerical evaluation method.
By utilizing the HF-01S Heat Flux Sensors, Ecotherm successfully validated a methodology presented at the AIJ 2025 Conference to analyze heat transfer dynamics with unprecedented accuracy.
Key Highlights of the Study:
-
The Challenge: Identifying and mitigating thermal bridging in next-generation nanoporous insulation.
-
The Technology: Implementing EKO’s HF-01S sensors to capture empirical data across laminate structures.
-
The Outcome: Confirmation that numerical modeling can effectively predict and improve VIP thermal performance.
-
Future Impact: How these insights are driving the development of high-quality, high-temperature nano insulation boards and containers.
