A steam pipeline is 300 m long and has an outside diameter of 210 mm. It is intended to carry 30,000
kg/hour of saturated steam at 2000 Kpa. It is also expected that 11.86 KJ/ kg of steam flow will be lost to the
atmosphere through the pipe insulation. Assume there is no temperature drop across the pipe wall and that as
the coefficient of thermal conductivity of the pipeline insulation used is 0.038 W/m/K. The design calls for an
outer insulation temperature of 30°C. Determine:
The outside diameter in mm of the insulation is most nearly:
O 220.75
O 300.15
320 22
240 21
