The argillaceous sequence performs the double function of an impermeable caprock, which prevents the dissipation of heat by the upward convective mass flow of heated fluids, and also a thermal insulator, which prevents the dissipation of heat by conduction, and thus allows the buildup of high temperatures in the reservoir. 7, record 1, English, - thermal%20insulation

La séquence de roches argileuses aurait pour double fonction de former une couche imperméable, pour empêcher la perte de chaleur par l'écoulement en masse de fluides chauds entraînés vers le haut dans un mouvement de convection, et de servir d'isolant thermique, pour éviter la perte de chaleur par conduction, et ainsi permettre une élévation de la température dans le réservoir. 5, record 1, French, - isolant%20thermique

Thermal blanketing is used to keep satellite cooler or warmer, depending on what is needed. It acts like the insulation in your house: when it's hot outside, insulation keeps cool inside and when it's cold outside, insulation keeps warm air inside. Mylar [is] a very good material for thermal blanketing. Mylar is the trademark name for a polyester film plastic discovered and manufactured by the company DuPont. Mylar has many uses, including insulation, backing for magnet tape, balloons, and as a polyester film used to cover a metallic yarn. Mylar is also used for insulation in space suits. It is moderately expensive, and moderately durable. 3, record 2, English, - thermal%20blanketing
