Question: Problem 3 CLO 3 A pipe has an outer surface of diameter D 0 = 1 0 0 m m and a tenperature I s

Problem 3 CLO 3
A pipe has an outer surface of diameter D0=100mm and a tenperature Is=200C. The
outer surface of the tube is exposed to air for which T=30C and h=30Wm2.K.
a) Draw a schematic diagram of the problem and calculate the heat loss from the pipe
per unit length.
An insulation layer (k=0.5Wm.K) of thickness 50 mm is added on the outer surface of the
pipe to decrease the heat loss.
b) Draw the complete equivalent thermal circuit.
c) Calculate the heat loss from the pipe per unit length after adding the insulation
layer. The pipe outer surface Ts is maintained at 200C.
d) Find the temperature of the outer surface of the insulation layer.
