Effect from a Variable U-Value in Adaptive Building Components with Controlled Internal Air Pressure

In an environment that experiences drastically changing temperatures it is potentially more energy efficient to use insulative walls that can change their apparent thermal conductivities. This paper suggests a nano-porous material able to change its thermal conductivity by a factor of 3 varying the pressure upon it from 1 to 100 kPa. Thermal conductivity measurements are made in-situ by an airtight guarded heat flow meter....
