In a piping system a bare pipe has a heat loss of 6 kW/m. By insulating the pipe the heat loss will be reduce to 0.90 kW/m. If the total length of the pipe is 40m and operation per month is 500 hrs, how much energy is saved per month because of the insulation?     3.672×109 kJ     3.672×108 kJ     4.672×108 kJ     4.672×109 kJ
