A liquid at 300 F flows through a 3-in. steel pipe (schedule 40) covered with a ½ in. thickness of asbestos insulation. The ambient temperature is 80 F. The inside surface film coefficient is 40 Btu/hr-sq ft-F, and the outside surface film coefficient is 4.0 Btu/hr-sq ft-F. The thermal conductivities of steel and asbestos can be taken as 25 and 0.11 Btu/hr-ft-F respectively. What's the heat loss per foot length of the pipe?

An incompressible liquid flows through a straight horizontal pipe. Friction of the fluid within the pipe causes a small amount of heat to be transferred from the fluid; to compensate, flow work must be done on the fluid to move it through the system (so W(dot)fl is greater than zero. a) How are V(dot)in and V(dot)out related, where V(dot) is the volumetric flow rate of the liquid? (Remember, fluid is incompressible) b) How must the pressures of Pin and Pout...

A liquid of density 1.33 × 103 kg/m3 flows steadily through a pipe of varying diameter and height. At location 1 along the pipe the flow speed is 9.09 m/s and the pipe diameter is 10.9 cm. At location 2 the pipe diameter is 14.3 cm. At location 1 the pipe is 9.75 m higher than it is at location 2. Ignoring viscosity, calculate the difference between the fluid pressure at location 2 and the fluid pressure at location 1.
