Sentences with phrase «of superinsulated»

Here is a new study I just saw, looking at overheating of a superinsulated house in a hot climate, including life cycle analysis.

In 1979, he put out a press release praising the characteristics and benefits of superinsulated houses.

As Joe Biden toured a production line, earnestly absorbing the esoterica of superinsulating windows, Surace corralled one of the Vice President's aides.

But so unexpected was the discovery of the superinsulating state that Vinokur's team was initially unaware of the prediction.

«The experiments carried out by our team conclusively establish the existence of the superinsulating state and the validity of its foundational concepts, including the fundamental concept of charge - vortex duality,» said Vinokur, who also is a Senior Fellow in the University of Chicago's Computation Institute.

The latest finding builds on work published in 2008 by Vinokur and his associates that experimentally established the existence of the superinsulating state, while also proposing that it «mirrors» the behavior that occurs in the superconducting state, deriving it from the most fundamental quantum concept, the uncertainty principle.

The leaves do not generate heat and are not made of some superinsulating material, Helliker stresses.

One future avenue of research for Vinokur and his colleagues will be to raise the temperature at which their niobium titanium nitrite compound transitions into the superinsulating state.

However, until now, scientists had never conclusively observed the mirror - like reflection of the vortex BKT transition — the charge BKT transition — on the superinsulating side of the superconductor - insulator transition.

The superinsulating capacity of titanium nitride occurs only at supercold temperatures, within one - tenth of one degree of absolute zero, the temperature at which all motion ceases.

In April an international team of scientists introduced a new fundamental state of matter: superinsulating.

As Lloyd points out, the «Superinsulated» house was really the origin and (along with airtightness) is the foundation of Passive House.

The best home fell well short of the Passivhaus standard, of course; it measured 2.24 ac / h @ 50 Pa — about the same as the superinsulated house that Riversong built.
