BS EN ISO 9346:1996 is a European Standard adopted from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This standard focuses on thermal insulation and deals specifically with mass transfer. It provides definitions and descriptions of physical quantities related to mass transfer in the context of thermal insulation. Here's what this standard covers:
Thermal Insulation: Thermal insulation involves materials and products designed to reduce the transfer of heat and, in some cases, moisture between different environments. These materials are used in various applications to control temperature and protect against moisture-related issues.
Mass Transfer: Mass transfer refers to the movement of mass (usually in the form of gases or vapors) from one location or substance to another. In the context of thermal insulation, understanding mass transfer is important because some insulation materials may also serve as vapor barriers or control the migration of gases.
Physical Quantities: The standard defines and describes physical quantities related to mass transfer. These quantities include parameters such as permeability, diffusivity, and solubility. These parameters are crucial for characterizing how different materials interact with the movement of gases or moisture.
Definitions: BS EN ISO 9346 provides clear definitions for key terms and concepts related to mass transfer in the context of thermal insulation. This ensures that professionals in the field have a common understanding of the terminology used in mass transfer analysis and insulation materials' behavior.
