Category:Senior
Region:Prince Albert & Northeast Saskatchewan
City:Weldon, SK, Kinistino, SK
School:Kinistino School
Abstract:Our project is an environmentally friendly innovation that investigates the use of pykrete as an eco-insulator in a sustainable cattle shelter. We focused on pykrete’s low thermal conductivity. We built a scale model of a pykrete cattle shelter and temperature measurements show that pykrete may be an effective eco-insulator that could potentially save cattle farmer’s valuable dollars.
