Based on the following conditions do a comparison between the heat loss from an uninsulated and an insulated copper pipe. The thermal conductivity of copper is 400 W/m.K has an internal diameter of 100 mm and an external diameter of 120 mm. The pipe is located in a space at 30°C and the heat transfer coefficient on its outer surface is estimated to be 15 W/m' K. Additionally, saturated steam flows inside the pipe at 110°C. The thickness and thermal conducti vity of the insulation is 5 cm and 0.20 W/m.K respectively.
