A 2 in schedule 40 pipe insulated with 1 in of 85% magnesia iscarrying a fluid at 800°F. The insulated pipe passes through a roomat 80°F, and the outside surface of the magnesia is at 100°F.Please calculate

The total heat loss per linear foot of pipe (in Btu/h),

The temperature of the inside wall of the pipe (in *F), and

The heat transfer coefficient between the fluid inside the pipeand the inside pipe wall (in Btu/h?ft2?F°).

The outside heat transfercoefficient is 10 Btu/h?ft2?F°.
