An insulated steam pipe located where the ambient temperature is 32 °C, has an inside diameter of 50mm with 10mm thick wall. The outside diameter of the asbestos insulation is 125 mm and the heat transfer coefficient of still air, h0 = 12 W/m2·K. Inside the pipe is steam having a temperature of 150 °C with heat transfer coefficient of hi =6000 W/m2·K. Thermal conductivity of pipe and the asbestos insulation are 45 and 0.12 W/mK respectively. (a) Draw a schematic for this problem, (b) draw the thermal resistance network, and (c) determine the heat loss per unit length of pipe

An insulated steam pipe located where the ambient temperature is 32 °C, has an inside diameter of 50mm with 10mm thick wall. The outside diameter of the asbestos insulation is 125 mm and the heat transfer coefficient of still air, h0 = 12 W/m2·K. Inside the pipe is steam having a temperature of 150 °C with heat transfer coefficient of hi =6000 W/m2·K. Thermal conductivity of pipe and the asbestos insulation are 45 and 0.12 W/mK respectively. (a) Draw a schematic for this problem, (b) draw the thermal resistance network, and (c) determine the heat loss per unit length of pipe.
