(B) Stainless steel tube is used to transport pharmaceutical liquids, it has an inner diameter of 40 mm and a wall thickness of 4 mm. The pharmaceutical and ambient air are at temperatures of 6 C and 23C, respectively, while the corresponding inner and outer convection coefficients are 400 W/m² .K and 6 W/m² K, respectively. (a) What is the heat gain per unit length? (b) What is the heat gain per unit length if a 10 mm thickness layer of calcium silicate insulation (Kins = 0.050 W/m. K) is applied to the tube?

Question
(B) Stainless steel tube is used to transport pharmaceutical liquids, it has an inner diameter of 40 mm
and a wall thickness of 4 mm. The pharmaceutical and ambient air are at temperatures of 6 C and
23C, respectively, while the corresponding inner and outer convection coefficients are 400 W/m²
.K and 6 W/m² K, respectively.
(a) What is the heat gain per unit length?
(b) What is the heat gain per unit length if a 10 mm thickness layer of calcium silicate insulation
(kins = 0.050 W/m. K) is applied to the tube?
