Insulation
- It is defined as a process of preventing the flow of heat from the body by applying insulator materials to the surface which controls the rate of heat transfer.
- The insulating ability of an insulator depends on various factors:
- thickness of insulator
- material of insulator
- surrounding conditions
- temperature difference
- Generally, air packets are present in porous insulating materials.
- Since water which is a more conductive material is replacing air which is a less conductive material, so the overall insulating ability of the insulator will decrease. Most insulators are porous in nature.
- If it has been about Non-porous insulators then the insulating ability will remain unaffected.
