Thermal diffusion conduction is a scientific term that refers to how different temperature transfers occur. This is a very important aspect in understanding how insulating materials work and the importance of insulating materials. Typically, heat is transferred from the hot zone to the cooler zone. This is an effective heat loss. Thermal diffusion refers to the flow of particles from a high concentration region to a lower concentration region to diffuse or balance the temperature. Together, diffusion and conduction can have a huge impact on your home's energy efficiency.

How does the insulator help reduce thermal diffusion conduction?

The insulator provides a protective barrier that slows and reduces the amount of thermal diffusion conduction that occurs. For example, consider using a thermos bottle. The flask consisted of two compartments. The interior compartment holds your coffee. The gap between the inner compartment and the exterior of the flask forms an insulating barrier against the cold external temperature. This will ensure that your coffee stays warmer for longer. The same applies to the insulators used in your home. You will have all kinds of heat sources. Think about the hot water pipes in your home. Will the pipe flow through a cold, non-insulated room, such as a loft? If so, a large amount of heat may be lost in the process. For the same reason, many people place insulation blankets around their geysers so that the heat generated is not lost. Small things such as floors, windows or door frame cracks can help with thermal diffusion conduction. By sealing these gaps, you can ensure that warm air does not escape or that hot air does not enter when trying to keep the space cool.
