the outside of the pipe. The adhesive interface between the insulation and the metallic pipe wall is characterized by a thermal contact resistance of R";c = 3.5 x104 m°K/W. Estimate the steady-state cooling capacity in W required of the pipe flow, to maintain inside surface temperature of –6°C if the ambient temperature is 30 °C. The heat transfer coefficient with the ambient is h = 20 W/mK.
