Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An operational procedure for guarded hot box (GHB) testing has been developed in the Thermal Measurements Laboratory (TML) of the Construction Products Division of W. R. Grace and Co. The GHB operational procedures consisting of specimen preparation, "calibration", testing, data analysis, and reporting are presented in this report. These procedures follow the general guidelines given in ASTM Test for Steady-State Thermal Performance of Building Assemblies by Means of a Guarded Hot Box (C 236). In the specimen preparation procedure, material handling, specimen construction, specimen mounting into the specimen frame, and instrumentation placement and method of attachment are discussed in detail. The "calibration" procedure developed accounts for any variations in the thermal conductance of the metering box walls caused by design or construction. The experimentally determined setting for the thermopile electromotive force is controlled during testing so that the net heat flow through the metering box walls is negligible. The "calibration" procedure does not require knowledge of the thermal conductance of the specimen. A testing procedure is discussed that provides steady-state operation as defined by six steady 4-h periods of temperature and heat flow data within 1% of each other. The test data are analyzed and a GHB test report is generated by a computer software package. Examples of a typical GHB test report and a testing procedure data sheet are presented.

This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Established by Congress in 1901, the National Bureau of Standards (NBS), now the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), has a long and distinguished history as the custodian and disseminator of the United States' standards of physical measurement. Having reached its centennial anniversary, the NBS/NIST reflects on and celebrates its first century with this book describing some of its seminal contributions to science and technology. Within these pages are 102 vignettes that describe some of the Institute's classic publications. Each vignette relates the context in which the publication appeared, its impact on science, technology, and the general public, and brief details about the lives and work of the authors. The groundbreaking works depicted include: A breakthrough paper on laser-cooling of atoms below the Doppler limit, which led to the award of the 1997 Nobel Prize for Physics to William D. Phillips The official report on the development of the radio proximity fuse, one of the most important new weapons of World War II The 1932 paper reporting the discovery of deuterium in experiments that led to Harold Urey's1934 Nobel Prize for Chemistry A review of the development of the SEAC, the first digital computer to employ stored programs and the first to process images in digital form The first paper demonstrating that parity is not conserved in nuclear physics, a result that shattered a fundamental concept of theoretical physics and led to a Nobel Prize for T. D. Lee and C. Y. Yang "Observation of Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Dilute Atomic Vapor," a 1995 paper that has already opened vast new areas of research A landmark contribution to the field of protein crystallography by Wlodawer and coworkers on the use of joint x-ray and neutron diffraction to determine the structure of proteins

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 6.10 by 4.27 m (20 by 14 ft) vertical heat flow hot box at the Owens-Corning Fiberglas Technical Center has recently been used to make measurements on a variety of roof/ceiling insulation systems used in the steel bar joist and metal deck construction typical in commercial buildings. Since these systems varied in geometry from one with roof insulation only to one combining roof insulation, a plenum, and an insulated hung ceiling, the sample support needed to be nearly 1.22 m (4 ft) tall. This meant that the extraneous energy flows through this support would be a substantial fraction of the sample energy flow for well-insulated samples. Furthermore, these relatively large flows combined with the variety of system geometries would have required that calibrations be developed for multiple geometries.
