Abstract

The current work demonstrates how insulation can be employed in new building walls to reduce the amount of power needed. The model comprises of one room, with walls and ceiling made of brick walls 6 cm thick to decrease heat transmission to a minimum value from all wall directions: north, west, east, and south, which were studied. The room's measurements were 40 cm wide (45 cm) long and (40 cm) high. All of walls were directly exposed to the outside environment. Building walls facing four directions, north, south, east, and west. The floor is built of (20 mm) thick wooden pallets. The experimental activity entails developing a packing material and then constructing an experimental room to study the influence of packaging material on heat loss from space to outside of room.
The investigation focused on south wall of experimental room. A variety of packaging materials were utilized to reduce heat loss transmission through the wall from the inner chamber to the outside.There was large temperature difference between the insulating walls interior and the cement walls exterior. The packing was fixed to the south wall in two places, on internal side (cement, plaster, and gypsum board) and on the external side (gypsum board). Because of the cement's high absorption,
