Question

A long 8-cm diameter vertical steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 90 degrees C passes through some open area that is not protected against the wind blows. Determine the rate of heat loss from the pipe per unit length when the air is at 1 atm, 7 degrees Celsius and the wind is blowing across the pipe at a velocity of 50 km/h.


From Table A-1:
Thermal conductivity, k = 0.0275 W/m degrees Celsius ,
viscosity, v = 1.77 x 10^-5 m^2/s
Prandtl no. Pr = 0.71
