Thanks IRstuff,
The second link, the pdf, should lead me to the equations I'm looking for. I'll have to read it a few times to get fully understand it, but it looks like what I am looking for. I'll try to update with my results.
Thank you, and I understand the simplicity of the problem, but there are very limited resources for this type of problem. I have skimmed 3 different heat transfer books, and done many different searches with various key words. There seems to not be any definitive resources which explain pipe and...
This is a quick paint job I did. I feel like the equations should be simpler if only worrying about half the problem. You can mirror the problem over the dotted line I drew in. The air, which is labeled as T_cold, would be against the face of the wall. T_hot represents the hot water flowing...
I'm calculating the equivalent thermal resistance. I can solve the convection on the inside of the pipe, the radial conduction through the pipe walls, and the convection/ radiation out from the plane wall. My issue is how to treat the pipe the wall scenario. Are there equations to find the...
I've been doing some research on the subject and have had difficulty finding sources to back up my math. I'm modeling an item, simplified I drew it out as a pipe through a wall. I want to know how energy generated from the inside of the pipe affects the outside of the wall.
So imagine a...
