    Heat loss in buried chamber

    Problem is that I don't have data for ground temperatures. The installation in question is owned by a water company over 200 miles away so throwing a logger into the installation isn't really practical. A test rig is being set up with an industrial freezer to gain experimental results so...

    Heat loss in buried chamber

    Yeah that's the right layout and I think you are right that I need more information. It might be the case that some experimentation is needed to figure it out. Thanks for your help

    Heat loss in buried chamber

    Thanks for the reply. I already have a calculation for the water going to the pressure transducer to freeze but the calculation is dependent on the temperature of the air inside the chamber. I'm just trying to get an idea of how long it would take for the air inside the chamber to reach the...

    Heat loss in buried chamber

    Hi guys. I have a pipe chamber containing a pressure transducer that has been subject to freezing over the last year. I want to calculate the length of time for the temperature inside the chamber to drop to the atmospheric temperature above ground. Assume the chamber is 2m x 2m x 2m insulated...
