Thermal conductivity study of different engobed ceramic brick

Abstract The thermal conductivity of engobed building ceramics was studied as a function of their microstructure. The following thermal conductivity coefficients of the samples were determined: clinker bricks with 5% water absorption - 1.04 W/(m·K) and facing bricks (ordinary) with 12% water absorpt...

description Abstract The thermal conductivity of engobed building ceramics was studied as a function of their microstructure. The following thermal conductivity coefficients of the samples were determined: clinker bricks with 5% water absorption - 1.04 W/(m·K) and facing bricks (ordinary) with 12% water absorption - 0.48 W/(m·K) (ignoring the voids in the samples). A comparison of the thermal conductivity of brick samples of uniform thickness without engobe and with engobe showed that the latter had a slight increase in thermal conductivity of 0.3% due to forming a denser outer layer on its surface with 2.0-0.3% water absorption. However, as the engobe coating is applied as an additional layer on the top of the ceramic bricks and the product has a greater thickness, the heat flow through the engobed bricks is 0.1-0.2 % lower. The results can be applied to technologies for achieving energy-efficient decorative and protective coatings for building ceramics.
