A steam pipe carrying steam at 380 kPa pressure for a distance of 120 m in a chemical plant is not insulated. Estimate the Amount of heat saved if 16 cm steam line were covered with 85% magnesia pipe covering 5 cm thick. Take room temperature to be 36 ℃. Thermal conductivity of 85% magnesia is 0.0745 W/m−K , unit convective coefficient of room air, ho = 12 W m2−K .Take the steam temperature as 142℃. Use atleast 4 decimal places in every computation
