Abstract

Vacuum insulation panel (VIP) is characterized by its unique vacuum structure, which results in extremely low thermal conductivity. However, its application in nuclear power pipelines has been rarely mentioned. In this work, super fiber reinforced aerogel (SFRA) serves as the insulating core material, combined with an ultra-thin stainless steel gas barrier to develop a new type of super insulating material, called SFRA-VIP. It exhibits an extremely low thermal conductivity (4.3 mW/m·K) and favorable thermal stability. Furthermore, the study explored the impact of stainless steel gas barrier thickness, fiber content, and aerogel density on the thermal insulation performance of SFRA-VIP. Using COMSOL Multiphysics, the heat transfer behavior of SFRA-VIP under high temperatures in nuclear power pipelines was simulated. The findings indicate that SFRA-VIP demonstrates outstanding thermal insulation performance at high temperatures, with just a 15 mm thickness reducing 450 °C to below 50 °C, which will further expand the application scope of VIP in the field of thermal insulation, particularly in the area of nuclear power pipelines.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Porous Materials is an interdisciplinary and international periodical devoted to all types of porous materials. Its aim is the rapid publication of high quality, peer-reviewed papers focused on the synthesis, processing, characterization and property evaluation of all porous materials. The objective is to establish a unique journal that will serve as a principal means of communication for the growing interdisciplinary field of porous materials. Porous materials include microporous materials with 50 nm pores. Examples of microporous materials are natural and synthetic molecular sieves, cationic and anionic clays, pillared clays, tobermorites, pillared Zr and Ti phosphates, spherosilicates, carbons, porous polymers, xerogels, etc. Mesoporous materials include synthetic molecular sieves, xerogels, aerogels, glasses, glass ceramics, porous polymers, etc.; while macroporous materials include ceramics, glass ceramics, porous polymers, aerogels, cement, etc. The porous materials can be crystalline, semicrystalline or noncrystalline, or combinations thereof. They can also be either organic, inorganic, or their composites. The overall objective of the journal is the establishment of one main forum covering the basic and applied aspects of all porous materials.
