A 10 cm dia steam pipe, carrying steam at 180°C, is covered with an insulation (conductivity = 0.6 W/m.°C). It losses heat to the surroundings at 30°C. Assume a heat transfer co-efficient of 0.8 W/m2.°C for heat transfer from surface to the surroundings. Neglect wall resistance of the pipe and film resistance of steam. If the insulation thickness is 2 cms, the rate of heat loss from this insulated pipe will be__________________?
A Greater than that for un-insulated steam pipe
B Less than that of the un-insulated steam pipe
C Equal to that of the un-insulated steam pipe
D Less than the steam pipe with 5 cms insulation
Correct Answer: Less than that of the un-insulated steam pipe

A Economiser
B Regenerator
C Ceramic recuperator
D None of these
Correct Answer: None of these

D Neither A. and B.
Correct Answer: Neither A. and B.
The heat flux in the nucleate boiling regimes is proportional to (where, ΔT = excess temperature) ?
A (ΔT)2
B (ΔT)4
C (ΔT)3
D √(ΔT)
