Schematic diagram of a large area configuration for measuring the thermal insulating properties of VIG
Source publication
Non-uniformities in the heat flow through the support pillars in vacuum insulating glass (VIG) can lead to significant errors in the measurement of the thermal insulating properties of these devices. This paper discusses these errors in instruments for which the measurement area is in direct thermal contact with the glass sheets. The spatial non-un...
