    Temperature Rise in Steel Pipe

    I assumed steady state equations would not apply since 5-10 minutes isn't a very long time and the pipe would most likely still be heating up from the air flow. Initially, the pipe will have no flow, so it will be at ambient temperature. Then, at t0, flow begins at 210ºF. I want to know what the...

    Temperature Rise in Steel Pipe

    Hi, It's been a while since I took a heat transfer course, and I'm having trouble figuring out a method to determine the temperature of this blowoff piping after 5-10 minutes. Pipe Material: Carbon steel Pipe Diameter: 20-inches OD Pipe Thickness: 3/8-inch Fluid flow: 44,000 cfm Fluid type...
