TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The present invention pertains to a heat insulator for preventing loss of heat from a plurality of pipes carrying heated liquid or gaseous materials installed in a plurality of applications including boiler systems, chiller systems, exhaust systems of commercial vehicles, internal combustion engines etc. and method of application thereof.
BACKGROUND
[0003] Insulation systems have played a critical role in the industry over the last many decades. Maintaining temperatures inside carrier pipes or tubes is of crucial importance for a variety of applications like boiler systems, chiller systems, exhaust systems of commercial vehicles, internal combustion engines, furnaces, kilns, chimneys etc.
[0004] For e.g. the importance of maintenance of a particular temperature for the exhaust pipes of the vehicles cannot be undermined. Exhaust gases discharged from the vehicular engines are carcinogenic and pose a serious environmental problem. In developed countries across Europe and United States, regulations regarding exhaust gases have been strengthened and due compliance is mandated. To meet the existing guidelines and norms on emissions i.e. Bharat Stage IV (BS IV) engine norms, particulate matter (PM) discharged from an engine needs to be burned in the exhaust pipe. The system uses either selective catalytic reduction (SCR) after-
treatment approach or the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) approach for achieving the burning of ammonia / urea inside the exhaust pipe and prevent their exposure to the environment. Since this burning is effected at roughly 360 degree Celsius to 380 degree Celsius, the maintenance of temperature of the exhaust pipe becomes crucial and said invention may help comply with the said BS IV emission standards particularly for emissions from trucks, buses etc.
[0005] Many methods of preventing heat loss exist but some of them are expensive, some are inflexible, some are not adaptable to various end-user size requirements while some do not provide adequate thermal protection or insulation. In one prior art, the use of ceramic coatings and insulating sleeves or wraps has been shown. However, they are expensive and require the component to be disassembled from the vehicle. Also, many of these sleeves are not flexible as they are either rigid or require a rigid protective cover. In another prior art, the use of glass fibres has been disclosed. However, glass fibres suffer from poor durability and are easily broken and is unsustainable in the long run.
[0006] Therefore, there is a need for a heat insulator system and method of application thereof to suit the diverse needs of various commercial sectors and yet be a one stop solution to prevent crucial heat loss. Accordingly, the present invention which relates to a heat insulating cover for a plurality of applications including but not limited to cover for exhaust pipes of commercial vehicles, boiler systems, chiller systems, internal combustion engines etc. and which attempts to solve the various problems in the prior art by introducing a multi-layer, flexible and durable alternative to increase the efficiency of the applications, to increase effective insulation and be sustainable by increasing the service life, may solve a long standing pressing need.
[0007] Therefore, in light of the foregoing deficiencies in the prior art, the applicant's invention is herein presented.

The mesh like
structure may be obtained from a substance capable of withstanding extensive heat since it is the first element of the heat insulator to have direct contact with the heated surface of the conduit carrying heated substances. The mesh is designed in a way to cover maximum surface area of the surface of the conduit carrying heated substance with or without any bends, curves, junctions. The wire mesh serves an important function of avoiding contact between the surface of the pipe carrying heated substance and the fabric layers of the heat insulator and hence tensile strength and thickness of the wire mesh are important parameters to be considered to avoid loss of heat from the pipe carrying heated substance to the environment. [0031] In another embodiment of the present invention, the innermost layer (101) of the heat insulator may comprise of a fibre glass mesh.

The said fabric may be coated by a mineral with a natural laminar structure that can help material expand or unfold upon exposure to extreme heat. The mineral coated fibreglass directly contacts the stainless-steel wire mesh and hence tensile strength, thermal conductivity and thickness of the layer are important parameters to be considered to avoid loss of heat from the pipe carrying heated substance to the environment.
[0034] In another embodiment of the present invention the second layer (102) of the heat insulator may comprise of high silica.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the second layer of the heat insulator may comprise of vermiculite coated silica fibre cloth with thickness in the range of 0.6 mm to 1.5 mm and tensile strength in the range of 217 lbs / inch to 320 lbs / inch following the EN ISO 13934.1 testing standard.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the third layer (103) of the heat insulator may comprise of ceramic fibre blanket with thermal conductivity for a layer with 128 grade density in the range of 0.11 watts per meter-kelvin to 0.15 watts per meter-kelvin in the temperature range of 400 degree Celsius to 600 degree Celsius with a thickness in the range of 6 mm and 20 mm, tensile strength in the range of 2500 kgf/m3 to 7500 kgf/m3 for an applied load in the range of 64 kg /m3 to 190 kg / m3 respectively for 128 grade density product.
[0038] In one embodiment of the present invention, the outermost layer (104) of the heat insulator may comprise a fibreglass fabric which is coated with a material to render it temperature-resistant, anti-corrosive, high strength, durable and with longer life-expectancy. The external coating can increase resistance to most chemicals and oil and sealing property and since the layer is exposed to environment, it should possess necessary wear resistance to avoid degradation and hence tensile strength, thermal conductivity and thickness of the layer are important
parameters to be considered to avoid loss of heat from the pipe carrying heated substance to the environment.
[0039] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the outermost layer (104) of the heat insulator may comprise double-sided silicone coated glass fibre or aluminium coated glass cloth or graphite coated glass cloth with thickness in the range of 0.4 mm to 0.8 mm.

The guide pocket (105) serves as a locking and holding mechanism while assembling all the layers of the invention together. This allows the invention to retain the flexible nature of the product while providing a solid locking system for
effective functioning of the heat insulator. A clamp (106) is provided for said locking purpose and the clamp (106) is fitted into the guide pocket (105) for effective assembly of the heat insulator and the invention comprises use of polytetrafluoroethylene thread for stitching the insulator at a temperature of 550 degree.
[0045] In one embodiment of the present invention, the operating temperature of the four -layered heat insulator may range from -30 degree Celsius to 750 degree Celsius for insulators wherein outermost layer (104) is comprised of a fabric made up of glass fibre coated on both sides by either a polymer with repeating Si-O-Si units or by aluminium or by graphite. Alternatively, the operating temperature of the six-layered heat insulator may range from -30 degree Celsius to 1000 degree Celsius for insulators wherein outermost layer (104) is comprised of fabric made up of glass fibre coated on both sides by either a polymer with repeating Si-O-Si units or by aluminium or by graphite.

The bench level difference in temperature (ΔΤ) is calculated in the as described in the standard tests as provided in IS 3144: 1992, IS 9489: 1980, IS 9490: 1980 and IS 3446: 1980.
[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the heat four layered heat insulator or the six-layered heat insulator may be in the range of 4 mm to 25 mm and more preferably in the range of 6 mm to 15 mm for insulators wherein outermost layer is (104) made of DSSCGFF, aluminium coated glass cloth or graphite coated glass cloth.
[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, the multi-layered flexible heat insulator may be tested for susceptibility to flammability, high -temperature durability and thermal shock and low -temperature durability and thermal shock as well as for resistance against water and resistance against mud.
