AFT Insulation vs. Traditional Insulation: What You Need to Know
Insulation materials are classified by their R-values, a measure of the amount of heat they resist per square inch of thickness. The R-value rule states that doubling the thickness of a material increases its R-value by a factor of two. However, this does not always hold for compressible materials such as fiberglass batts.
Loose-fill cellulose, used in attics, has a typical R-value of about R-3 per inch. Stabilized cellulose, used in walls, is applied with a binder that prevents it from settling and achieves a higher R-value of about R-4 per inch.
The Edit Insulations panel is accessed from the Library menu and allows users to view the insulation data provided with AFT Fathom or to add their own insulation materials for use in pipe model calculations. The user defined insulation materials are added to the Pipe Material Library as insulation data sets and can be associated with pipe models to perform heat transfer calculations.
