Abstract: We are interested in the thermal insulation of a bounded open set $Omega$ surrounded by a set whose thickness is locally described by $varepsilonh$, where $h$ is a non-negative function defined on the boundary $partialOmega$. We study the problem in the limit for $varepsilon$ going to zero using a first-order asymptotic development by $Gamma$-convergence.
