During a plant visit, it was noticed that a 12-m-long section of a 10-cm-diameter steam pipe is
completely exposed to the ambient air. The temperature measurements indicate that the average Snap a photo from your

There are also light winds in the area at 10 km/h. The emissivity of the outer surface of the pipe download link
is 0.8, and the average temperature of the surfaces surrounding the pipe, including the sky, is
estimated to be 0°C. Determine the amount of heat lost from the steam during a 10-h-long work
day.

Step 1 of 5
Given
Length of pipe (L) = 12 m
Diameter of pipe (D) = 0.1 m
Temperature of outer surface = 75°C
Ambient temperature = 5°C
Velocity of air (V) = 10 km/hr
Emissivity ( ) = 0.8
Temperature of surrounding = 0°C
