Considering Thermoeconomics

A high-pressure (HP) boiler and a low-pressure (LP) boiler will be added to a plant’s steam-generating system. Both boilers use the same fuel and at steady state have approximately the same rate of energy loss by heat transfer. The average temperature of the combustion gases is less in the LP boiler than in the HP boiler. In comparison to the LP boiler, might you spend more, the same, or less to insulate the HP boiler? Explain.
