Insulation calculation

The document provides a detailed calculation of insulation thickness and heat transfer for various components in a thermal system, including furnaces, ducts, and heaters. It outlines parameters such as inside fluid temperature, ambient temperature, and wind speed, along with recommended insulation materials and their properties. The calculations ensure that the skin casing temperatures remain within permissible limits while optimizing heat transfer efficiency.
