Question: Problem 3 ( 2 5 points ) : Steam at Z = - 2 8 0 C nows in a cast iron pipe ( k

Problem 3(25 points):
Steam at Z=-280C nows in a cast iron pipe (k=80WmK) whose inner and outer diameters are D1=4cm and D2=4.5cm, respectively. The pipe is covered with 2-cm-thick glass wool insulation with A=0.07Wm*K. Heat is lost to the surroundings at Tea=10C by natural convection with a heat transfer coefficient of hz-220Wm2*K. Taking the heat transfer coefficient inside the pipe to be h1=70Wm2*K and length of the pipe as L=1m, determine:
a) the rate of heat loss from the steam pipe.
b) the temperature drops across the pipe shell (T1-T2) and the insulation (T2-T3).
