A pipe carrying steam at 230°C has an internal diameter of 12 cm and the pipe thickness is 7.5 mm. The conductivity of the pipe material is 49 W/mK and the convective heat transfer coefficient on the inside is 85 W/m2K. The pipe is insulated by two layers of insulation one of 5 cm thickness of conductivity 0.15 W/mK and over it another 5 cm thickness of conductivity 0.48 W/mK. The outside is exposed to air at 35°C with a convection coefficient of 18 W/m2K. Determine the heat loss for 5 m length. Also determine the interface temperatures and the overall heat transfer coefficient based on inside and outside areas.
