A steel pipe carrying saturated steam at 4000 kpa, is 304.8 mm OD. The pipe is 150 m long. Temp outside the pipe is 18 degrees C. It is insulated with formed insulation with thermal conductivity of 0.023 W/m/K. If the design is to allow for condensation of 80 kg of steam per hour, how thick must the insulation be?
Exercise 1.16 An insulated district heating pipe with a total diameter d = 0.4 m is laid in the ground at a depth of h = 1.2 m. For a long cold period with an average ground surface temperature of 0°C and a temperature at the outer edge of the pipe insulation of 20°C, the heat loss per 1km of steam pipe must be calculated. The thermal conductivity of the soil should be assumed to be 0.6 W/mk
