To calculate the heat flow per square foot of pipe surface,
Equation 12 can be used.

(12)
where
g, " rate of heat transfer per square foot of pipe surface, Btu per (hour) (square foot).
For steady, state conditions, the heat flow through each
successive material is the same. However, the temperature
drop through each material is proportional to its thermal
resistance. The terms which appear in the denominators of Equations 10 and 11 represent the resistances to heat flow.
The heat transferred is inversely proportional to the sum
of the resistances (Ri + fi* + * + &) of the system! The
various temperature drops in the1 system are proportional to

- The assumptions used for calculations 'of 'heat loss are
usually:
-1, " temperature at inner surface of insulation equal to the temperature of fluid in the pipe or container,
still air ambient temperature = 80 F. - - . r, = inner radius of insulation " outside radius of iron pipe.., . r, = outer radius of insulation = r, + L.
Example IS: Compute the heat loss from a boiler wall if the interior Insulation surface temperature is 1100 F and the ambient still air temperature is 80 F. The wall is insulated with 4X m of mineral fiber block and X in. of mineral fiber insulating and fin fulling cement.
