If the steam line described in Problem 20.40 is bare and surrounded by still air at 70F, what total heat transfer would be predicted from a 20-ft length of bare pipe? Consider the bare pipe to be a black surface and the surroundings black at 70F.
Problem 20.40
Steam at 400 psi, 800F flows through a 1-in. schedule140 steel pipe at a rate of 10; 000 lbm/h: Estimate the value of h that applies at the inside pipe surface.
