Compute the heat loss per unit length of pipe


Discuss the below in detail:

Q: Steam at a temperature of 250°C flows through a steel pipe (AISI 1010) of 60-mm inside diameter and 75-mm outside diameter. The convection coefficient between the steam and the inner surface of the pipe is 500 W/m2 · K, while that between the outer surface of the pipe and the surroundings is 25 W/m2 · K. The pipe emissivity is 0.8, and the temperature of the air and the surroundings is 20°C. What is the heat loss per unit length of pipe?
