Abstract
In present study the ability to using the used paper to produce insulation material were studied for transient heat transfer through cylindrical tank containing hot water, and compared with fiber glass insulation. The material of paper insulation produced by changing the gathering used paper to dough by cutting, crumbling and dough it in water, then covering the tank by the produced dough with different thickness layers, and finally drying. The dropping of the temperature with time were obtained experimentally and theoretically by finite Element method (FEM) by using the (ANSYS) software for five different cases, without insulation, insulation by fiber glass, and insulation by paper in three different thicknesses (1, 2 and 3 cm) respectively. The dropping in temperature in certain time were obtained, the results showed that the materials made from used paper give a good ability in insulation, the paper material with (3 cm) thickness have approximately the same insulation behavior of fiber glass insulation with (1 cm) thickness. The different ratios between the numerical results by (FEM) by using the software was very small, and this prove that the dependence ability to use (FEM) by using the software generally in engineering analysis, and especially in thermal analysis.
