. A steam main (outside diameter of 16.8 cm and inside diameter of 15.4 cm) is covered with 5-cm of high temperature insulation (k = 0.095 W/m. K) and 3.8 cm of lower temperature insulation (k = 0.07W/m. K). Calculate the heat loss from 150 m pipe assuming that inner and outer surface temperatures of the insulation are 450 and 30 °C, respectively. Also determine the temperature at the interface between two layers of insulation (10 points).
