Simulations Insulation Materials

Thermal or acoustic insulation materials are usually highly porous fibre or foam structures, which on the one hand should have the lowest possible thermal conductivity or high acoustic absorption, but on the other hand must also be permanently stable. The optimal selection of the material structure thus requires the determination of the different material properties and the quantitative evaluation of the conflicting criteria.

Based on microstructure simulations with GeoDict, we improve the fiber and foam structures with respect to their properties. In a second step, we can also optimize the design of multilayer systems. For the latter we also use measured input data.
