Experimental investigation of building insulation materials in UAE from 2012–2014. Four same calorimeters with different south walls were built in open air laboratory. Heat flux was reduced by 22–75% in steady state analysis during summer by insulation. Hence, energy consumption for cooling was reduced by an average 7.6–25.3%. Heat flow was steady in free floating analysis in winter through insulated walls.
