Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1273743A1] The wall has a two-layer construction formed by three flexible tent fabrics (1-3). The inner layer (5), defined by the inner and middle tent fabric layers (1, 2), is inflatable and forms the main supporting structure of the wall. The outer layer (7), defined by the middle and outer tent fabric layers (2, 3) forms a convection space, through which air from the surroundings can flow in an upwards direction, in order to provide high thermal insulation or, in the event of the space inside the wall being cooled, maintain the increased temperature at the outer tent fabric. Inflatable support hoses between the middle and outer tent fabric layers can act as an alternative support structure and as spacer elements.
