Determine the rate of heat transfer per unit length from a 5-cm-OD pipe at 150°C placed eccentrically within a larger cylinder of 85% Magnesia wool as shown in the sketch. The outside diameter of the larger cylinder is 15 cm and the surface temperature is 50°C.
GIVEN
A pipe placed eccentrically within a larger cylinder of 85% Magnesia wool as shown in the sketch
Outside diameter of the pipe (Dp) = 5 cm = 0.05 m
Temperature of the pipe (Ts) = 150°C
Outside diameter of the larger cylinder (Do) = 15 cm = 0.15 m
Temperature of outer pipe (To) = 50°C
FIND
The rate of heat transfer per meter length (q)
ASSUMPTIONS
