A 2.54-cm-OD, 1.9-cm-ID steel pipe carries dry air at a velocity of 7.6 m/s and a temperature of –7°C. Ambient air is at 21°C and has a dew point of 10°C. How much insulation with a conductivity of 0.18 W/(m K) is needed to prevent condensation on the exterior of the insulation if h = 2.4 W/(m2 K) on the outside?

GIVEN

FIND
Thickness of insulation (t) required to prevent condensation
ASSUMPTIONS
Steady state
Flow is fully developed
Pipe surface temperature can be considered uniform and constant
Radiation heat transfer to the insulation is negligible or included in ch ? Pipe is 1% carbon steel
SKETCH

PROPERTIES AND CONSTANTS
for dry air at –7°C by extrapolation

the thermal conductivity of 1% carbon steel (ks) = 52 W/(m K)
