Is there a maximum thickness for the insulation layer? !

It’s not the case that the thicker, the better, right? ! Thank you. . . . .
It definitely can’t be right; it being too thick is probably due to an inappropriate choice of material
The calculation should be determined based on specific surface area, insulation material, etc. 1m long pipe, temperature 375, insulation thickness 250! Is this normal? ! I think there’s something wrong! Thank you. . . . . .
What are thermal insulation materials?
No, there is a minimum thickness to prevent burns or freezing, as well as a maximum thickness that offers good cost-effectiveness. A greater thickness provides little benefit in terms of insulation; instead, it wastes material and is not economical.
Shouldn’t the calculation of the economic thickness of insulation layers be a topic on the injection molding exam?
It’s related to insulation materials, I guess. But there should be an upper limit.
Rock wool and composite silicates. . . . .
Is there a limit on the thickness? For example, if it exceeds this limit, does the temperature actually drop? !
It’s not that extreme; the insulating effect is practically non-existent. According to the insulation calculation tables, there is an optimal thickness at which the insulating effect reaches its peak, and beyond that point the slope becomes almost 0. However, I have not observed any situation where the slope is negative
