HFM E-Learning Courses

Become an expert in Heat Flow Meter Technology

The HFM method is one of the most commonly used methods in the field of thermal insulation materials. With this method you can determine Thermal ConductivityThermal conductivity (λ with the unit W/(m•K)) describes the transport of energy – in the form of heat – through a body of mass as the result of a temperature gradient (see fig. 1). According to the second law of thermodynamics, heat always flows in the direction of the lower temperature.thermal conductivity values of, e.g., building materials like wood or concrete, thermal insulation for buildings like mineral wool or foamed polystyrene or even vacuum insulation panels.
