• What are SEER and SCOP?

  23-04-2024 | Articles | Energy performance tests

  The energy efficiency of air conditioners and heat pumps is characterized by SEER, which is the seasonal energy efficiency ratio for cooling mode, and SCOP, which is the seasonal coefficient of performance for heating mode. At CEISLAB, we have been characterizing the energy efficiency of HVAC equipment for more than 25 years, so we know […]

• Compressive stress at 10 % strain

  15-06-2022 | Thermal insulation tests

  It is one of the main mechanical properties of thermal insulation products. Compressive stress at 10 % strain is determined according to the standards EN 826 / ISO 29469. This parameter can be used to establish the stresses at which to perform compressive creep tests (long-term reduction in thickness due to the pressure exerted on […]

• Dynamic stiffness

  07-06-2022 | Thermal insulation tests

  Dynamic stiffness is related to the acoustic insulation properties also exhibited by thermal insulation products, in particular the materials used under floating floors in dwellings to reduce the impact noise. According to the applicable standard, UNE-EN 29052-1:1994 (ISO 9052-1:1989), the aim is to determine the frequency of the fundamental vertical vibration (resonance frequency) of a […]

• Thermal conductivity and thermal resistance

  03-05-2022 | Thermal insulation tests

  Low thermal conductivity is one of the main characteristics of thermal insulation materials. The testing procedure to determine the thermal conductivity and resistance of building materials is mainly set forth in UNE-EN 12667:2002. This standard is applicable to all products with an expected thermal resistance equals to or higher than 0.5 m2·K/W. In order to […]
