Abstract
⺠The dependence of R-value of enclosed airspace on its aspect ratio was investigated. ⺠The aspect ratio has a significant effect on the R-value of enclosed airspace. ⺠Practical correlations are developed for determining the R-values of enclosed airspaces. ⺠The developed correlations can be easily used by modelers, architects and building designers. ⺠R-value could be doubled due to installing thin sheet in the middle of enclosed airspace.
