Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient of LPG

Vaporization of LPG by ambient air

With those temperatures, there will be a heat gain, not a heat loss.

Surely this installation's operating company has a piping insulation standard that must be followed?

Dear Mr. srikanth45,

Your question is not clear. Can you clearly spell it or elaborate it. What I presume or infer from your point is WHAT IS THE AMOUNT OF HEAT LIBERATED and your equation is the total heat involved for which it can be calculated from Analysis of the LPG.

Over-All Heat Transfer Co-Efficient is involved where one Heating Medium and another Medium to be heated - where HEAT TRANSFER IS COMPULSORY. It can be LIQUID to LIQUID or AIR/GAS to LIQUID or AIR/GAS to AIR/GAS. Here the HEAT LOSS = HEAT GAIN is the BASIS, and LG MEAN TEMPERATURE IS INVOLVED. The Temperatures, Flow rate, Material of the Heat Exchanger, Circulation Rate etc. are involved.

Regardiing insulation, what is the Standard are Radiation is PERMISSIBLE, based on that we can find out.

Let other CR4 MEMBERS also post their views.

Thanks,
