Heat Transfer
A 10 cm dia steam pipe, carrying steam at 180°C, is covered with an insulation (conductivity = 0.6 W/m.°C). It losses heat to the surroundings at 30°C. Assume a heat transfer co-efficient of 0.8 W/m².°C for heat transfer from surface to the surroundings. Neglect wall resistance of the pipe and film resistance of steam. If the insulation thickness is 2 cms, the rate of heat loss from this insulated pipe will be

Greater than that for uninsulated steam pipe
Equal to that of the uninsulated steam pipe
Less than that of the uninsulated steam pipe
Less than the steam pipe with 5 cms insulation

Heat Transfer
In a shell and tube heat exchanger,

The temperature drops in the two fluids and the wall are proportional to individual resistances
The temperature drop is inversely proportional to the resistance across which the drop occurs
There is no relationship between temperature drop and resistance
The relationship is not generalised
