The paper proposes producing walls of passenger and refrigerator carriages and thermally insulated containers from hollow aluminum profiles, and evacuation of the internal cavities of the panel to a residual pressure of less than 1...2 kPa. Calculations of heat transfer through these walls take into account the thermal conductivity of the edges of convective heat transfer at a low-pressure environment in the cavities of aluminum panels, and radiation heat transfer.

Keywords: extruded aluminium panels, extrusion method, thermal properties.
