TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on the measuring technique and values of the measured thermal properties of some commonly used insulation materials produced by local manufacturers in Saudi Arabia, and they show that the thermal conductivity increases with increasing temperature and decreases with increasing density over the temperature and density ranges considered in the present investigation.

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical model based on a finite-volume, time-dependent implicit procedure was used to compute the yearly cooling and heating transmission loads under steady periodic conditions through a typical building wall, for different insulation thicknesses.

TL;DR: In this article, the optimum thickness of insulation layers in cavity walls in buildings in buildings was determined under steady periodic conditions using the climatic data of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia using different insulation material.

TL;DR: In this article, the ASHRAE model calculations generally over-predict the measured data particularly for the months of October −→-May, and the results show that the AS-RAE models generally over predict the observed data.

TL;DR: In this article, a solar still plant capacity of 5.8 m 3 distillate per day is proposed to couple with the existing PV-RO plant in order to utilize most of the reject brine instead of releasing it into the ground.
