| − | Thermal resistance (R-Value) designates the resistance of a material to heat conduction. | + | '''Thermal resistance''' (R-Value) of a substance is its resistance to the [[conduction]] of [[heat]]. |
| | | | |
| − | The greater the R-value, the larger the thermal resistance.
| + | Thermal resistance is equal to the [[reciprocal]] of [[thermal conductivity]]. |
