each type of material, also, that in the use of conductivity all variables due to differences in thickness, pipe sizes, and air conditions are eli minated. Individual manufacturer's materials will, of course, vary in conductivity to some extent from these values.
The heat losses through 1, i}/2, and 2-in. thick 85 per cent magnesia type of insulation for temperature differences between the pipe and the surrounding atmosphere up to 280 F are shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3. Standard thicknesses of 85 per cent 'magnesia pipe covering are not exactly 1 in. However, the loss through any given thickness of insulation can be obtained by interpolation. Also, the losses through any of the insulations given in Table 6 can be obtained by multiplying the losses obtained from Figs. 1, 2, or 3 by the factors given in Table 7.
. Pipes operating at high temperatures are frequently insulated to the best advantage by combining a high temperature insulation near the pipe with a moderate or low temperature insulation around it as an outer
