사용기간 경과에 따른 온실용 다겹보온자재의 열환경 및 보온성능 변화: 촉진 내후성 시험 적용사례

Abstract

In this study, an accelerated weathering test was performed to examine the variation of thermal insulation performance according to the service life. A widely used class 1 thermal screen (matt georgette + polyethylene (PE) foam + chemical cotton + felt + matt georgette) was selected as the target thermal screen. The ultraviolet irradiation that reached the target thermal screen specimen (60 x 60cm) was 5mW/cm2. Thus, the ultraviolet irradiance was set to 5mW/cm2, and the exposure periods of accelerated weathering conditions on the specimens were set to 0, 282, 847, and 1412h. The radiation exposure periods of the weathering conditions for 0, 282, 847, and 1412h indicate the amount of ultraviolet accumulation for 0, 1, 3, and 5years, respectively. In the accelerated weathering test, the target specimens that completed each exposure phase were subjected to the hotbox test to analyze their thermal insulation performances. Consequently, the thermal insulation performance of the multi-layer thermal screen was estimated to degrade rapidly after approximately two years. In the accelerated weathering condition, a quadratic function model was used to calculate the expected service life, since it adequately described the variation in thermal insulation of the thermal screen according to time. The results showed that when the thermal insulation performance degraded by 5, 10, 20, and 30%, the expected service lives were 2.5, 3.3, 4.5, and 5.5years, respectively.
