  • System of using vacuum for controlling heat transfer in building structures, motor vehicles and the like
    Patent number: 3968831
    Abstract: A method of controlling thermal transfer in structures which are defined by walls which comprises drawing a partial vacuum between spaced panels forming said wall in conjunction with a supporting frame, and controlling thermal transfer by regulating the vacuum at appropriate times such as by reducing the vacuum when ambient temperatures are required in the structure, and then increasing the vacuum to maintain the then ambient temperature in the structure by decreasing heat flow through the walls to hold the temperature inspite of outside ambient variations.
