Question: The heat loss rate Q (in W/m) through a certain cylindrical pipe insulation is given by where T 1 is the temperature inside the insulation,

The heat loss rate Q (in W/m) through a certain cylindrical pipe insulation is given by

Q = 2T (0.040)(TT) In(r/r)


where Tis the temperature inside the insulation, T2 is the temperature outside the insulation, and r1 and r2 are the inside and outside radii of the insulation, respectively. Find the heat loss rate if T1 = 145°C,T2 = 15.0°C,r1 = 1.50in., and r2 = 2.50 in.

Q = 2T (0.040)(TT) In(r/r)
