Building science / calculated values
What does 0.04 mean in a wall?
Thermal conductivity describes how readily heat passes through a material. A lower value means less heat transfer for the same thickness. Thermal resistance also accounts for thickness.
| Thickness | R · m²K/W |
|---|---|
| 50 mm | |
| 100 mm | |
| 150 mm | |
| 200 mm |
