 An oil pipe and a gas pipe run parallel to each

An oil pipe and a gas pipe run parallel to each other deep underground. Their centerlines are separated by 1 m. The oil pipe has an outer diameter of 75 cm and an outer temperature of 40 C; the gas pipe has an outer diameter of 30 cm and an outer temperature of 25 C. The thermal conductivity of the soil is 0.52 W/mK. Determine in W/m the linear amount of heat exchanged between the pipes
