A pipe 30 m long with an outer diameter of 75 mm is used to deliver steam at a rate of 1500 kg / hour. The vapor pressure is 198.53 kPa entering the pipe with a quality of 98%. The pipe needs to be insulated with a thermal conductivity of 0.2 W / (m K) so that the quality of the steam will only slightly decrease to 95%. The outer surface temperature of the insulation is assumed to be 25 ° C. Ignore resistance conductive of the pipe material and it is assumed that there is no pressure drop in the pipe.

Example: 0.5 kg of water per minute is
heated from 20° to 40°C when passed
through a tube of 2.5 cm diameter steel pipe.
