Apache-Tables User Guide: IES Virtual Environment 6.4Parameter source

Where: Table 6, System Material Database, Insulating Materials, Glasswool row, p. 16

Reports conductivity 0.040 W/(m K), specific heat 670 J/(kg K), and density 200 kg/m3.

Assessment findings

Namesupported
Table 6 names the material Glasswool exactly.
Targetsupported
Table 6 reports the three stored thermophysical material properties in their database units.
Valuessupported
The Glasswool row reports thermal conductivity 0.040 W/(m K), specific heat 670 J/(kg K), and density 200 kg/m3, exactly the complete active tuple.
Sourcesupported
The official IES System Material Database table publishes every active value; the legacy Ref 99240099 was explicitly a missing-reference placeholder and is replaced by this source.
issue #271
Placenot applicable
Representativenessnot applicable
Methodsupported
Literature adoption is appropriate because the record takes an existing System Material Database row.
Identitysupported
Stable record path, name, legacy ID and all parameter values are preserved.

Scientific note

The historical workbook row and the IES table have an exact name-and-value match; this record has no optical fields, so the source supports the complete active parameter tuple.
