I have a 16 inches (outside diameter)chilled water pipeline (cast iron) that is 80 feet long. Water is flowing through it with an initial temp of 45 degF. The line is exposed to an air temperature of 55 degF and I would like to know the temperature at the end of the pipeline. The flow rate is 1000 gpm.
I'm trying to generate some kind of pipeline heat gain table using the exposed pipe vs the insulated pipe.
Can anybody helps?
