amiuai neat luss irom xoo it oi z in. bare pipe in
service 4000 hr per year. The pipe is carrying steam at 10 lb pressure and is exposed to
an average air temperature of 70 F.
Solution. The pipe temperature is taken as the steam temperature, which is 239.4 F, obtained by interpolation from Table 8 Chapter 1. The temperature difference between the pipe and air = 239.4 -- 70 169.4 F. By interpolation of Table 6 between tem perature differences of 157.1 and 227.7 F, the heat loss from a 2 in. pipe at a temperature difference of 169.4 F is found to be 1.624 Btu per hour per linear foot per degree tem
perature difference. The total annual heat loss from the entire line = 1.624 X 169.4 X 165 (linear feet) X 4000 (hr) = 181,600 Mb.
Example 2. Coal costing $11.50 per ton and having a calorific value of 13,000 Btu
per pound is being burned in the furnace supplying steam to the pipe line given in the previous example. If the system is operating at an overall efficiency of 55 per.cent, determine the monetary value of the annual heat loss from the line.
Solution. The cost of heat per 1000 Mb supplied to the system = 1,000,000 X 11.5
