Air flows at 120 o C in a thin-walled tube (k = 18 W/m o C) with h = 65 w/m 2 - o C. The inside diameter of the tube is 2.5 cm tand the thickness is 0.4 mm. The tube is exposed to an environment with h = 6.5 W/m 2 - o C and temperature of 15 o C. Calculate the the heat loss for 1 m length. What thickness of insulation having k = 40 W/m- 0 C should be added to reduce heat loss by 90 %.
