b) A steel pipe of 100mm bore and 7mm thickness transports steam at 260 °C. The pipe is insulated with 40mm of a molded high temperature diatomaceous earth covering. This covering is in turn insulated with 60mm of asbestos. If the atmospheric temperature is 25 °C, calculate the rate at which heat is lost by the steam per meter length of the pipe.
