Question
A 250mm steam main, 225metres long is covered with 50mm of high temperature insulation (k = 0.095W/m K) and 40 mm of low temperature insulation (k = 0.065W/m K). The inner and outer surface temperatures as measured are 400°C and 50°C respectively. Calculate :
- The total heat loss per hour. [5]
- The total heat loss per m2 of outer surface. [5]
- The heat loss per m2 of pipe surface. [4]
- The temperature between the two layers of insulation. [4]
Neglect heat conduction through pipe material
