Problem : A cryogenic flui d is flowing in a 304 SS pipe. The pipe is insulated on its outside surface with 6 - mm thick, evacuated, aluminum foil/glass mat insulation. (“Evacuated” means a partial vacuum is drawn on the insulation to remove air that would otherwise fill pores inside the insulation.) The pipe inside diameter is 127 mm; it’s outside diameter is 138 mm. The fluid temperature is - 173 o C . T he air temperature outside the...
B Steam flows in a steel pipe, which is insulated by gypsum plaster. The inner and outer diameter of the pipe are 8 cm and 6 cm respectively with pipe length of 20-m. The thickness of gypsum plaster which wraps the pipe is 4 cm. The heat transfer coefficient of the inner pipe and outer insulation are 800 W/m2.°C and 200 W/m2.°C with inner pipe temperature of 200°C and outer insulator temperature of 10°C. The thermal conductivity of the pipe...
A 6 in. schedule 80 steel pipe (OD=6.62 in.) will be used to transport 450◦F steam from a boiler house to a new process unit. The pipe will be buried at a depth of 3 ft (to the pipe centerline). The soil at the plant site has an average thermal conductivity of 0.4 Btu/h · ft · ◦F and the minimum expected ground surface temperature is 20◦F. Estimate the rate of heat loss per foot of pipe length for the...

Problem 1. Steam at 120°C is transported in a long 8" outer diameter pipe. Its outer surface is covered with a 1" thick fiberglass (thermal conductivity, 0.05 W/(mK)) insulation. When the outer temperature is 0°C, the rate of condensation of steam is measured to equal 0.06 g per meter of the pipe length. Estimate the heat transfer coefficient. The heat of vaporization of the steam is 2600 J/g. The resistance to the heat transfer through the pipe wall may be...
For such aircraft application (Figure 3), a wall is made from insulation material (k-0.030 W/m.K) and the insulation material is mounted between four layers of carbon steel (2 mm thickness), the carbon layers are separated by a 2 mm air gap (kair-0.025 W/mK). Figure 3, the thermal conductivity of the carbon steel is (k-15.5 W/m.K). The temperature inside the wall is maintained at 6 °C. The environmental temperature is 24°C. The engineer would like to avoid condensation occurring at outer...
