What is the heat loss per unit length of pipe


A pipeline, used for the transport of crude oil, is buried in the earth such that its centerline is a distance of 1.5m below the surface. The pipe has an outer diameter of 0.5 m and is insulated with a layer of cellular glass 100 mm thick. What is the heat loss per unit length of pipe when heated oil at 120 C flows through the pipe and the surface of the earth is at a temperature of 0 C?
