heat loss in buried pipes

(OP)
Can anyone tell how you calculate heat loss from buried carbon steel pipe, natural gas in pipe?

RE: heat loss in buried pipes

Drop me a note with your email message at testdog2000@yahoo.com.  I have a scanned page out of SimSci's pipephase manual that goes into this that I can send you.

RE: heat loss in buried pipes

There are two methods I use frequently the more detailed with all the formula is IEEE 515 I believe revision 1997 is the latest.  This is very good.  The easier method is a heat transfer program written by Nelson heaters at Nelsonheaters.com  The program is Renegade and is free.  I have don't thousands of these type calculations using Renegae.  If you buy the heater cables from Nelson they will assist you in the calculation for free.
