Calculate rate of heat loss per unit length from pipe


0.1105 kg/s of water at an average temperature of 80°C is flowing inside a bare 0.02m-diameter-tube (ID) which has a wall thickness of 2.5 mm. The thermal conductivity of the pipe material is 60 W/mK. At the same time wind at a velocity of 20 m/s and a temperature of 25°C is blowing over the pipe. For a section of the pipe that flow is fully-developed: a) Draw a thermal circuit from inside to the outside of the tube and calculate each thermal resistance. b) Calculate the rate of heat loss per unit length, q', from the pipe. c) Calculate the pipe skin tempeartures inside and outside.
