Surface Characteristics - Effect on Thermal Regime. Phase 1

Abstract

The purpose of the contract is to investigate various methods for control of the heat reflectance and absorption characteristics of construction materials. Phase I consisted of a literature review and survey of characteristics of materials and techniques; a review of present heat flow calculation techniques with recommendations as to those most applicable for further study by USA CREEL; and presentation of recommendations as to the most promising solutions to the control of the heat reflecting and absorbing characteristics of construction materials with an outline of applicable field and laboratory procedures for refrigeration of the recommended solutions.
