Effective Insulation Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Effective Insulation (I) is:

\[ I = \frac{T_i - T_o}{H} \]

Where:

Effective Insulation (I): The ability of a material or structure to resist the transfer of heat.
Inside Temperature (T_i): The temperature inside in degrees Celsius (°C).
Outside Temperature (T_o): The temperature outside in degrees Celsius (°C).
Heat Loss Rate (H): The rate at which heat is lost.

Let's say the inside temperature (T_i) is 22°C, the outside temperature (T_o) is -5°C, and the heat loss rate (H) is 10. Using the formula:

\[ I = \frac{22 - (-5)}{10} = \frac{27}{10} = 2.7 \]

So, the effective insulation is 2.7.
