Losses in Steam Lines...

Dear all,

I’m looking to find the approximate heat/steam losses in steam lines.
I want to justify the instalation of lagging/insulation.

• I know the diameters of the various lines and the lengths.
• I know my steam temperature (175 degC) and pressure (9 Bar).
• I know the average monthly wind speed and ambient temperatures.

How can I work this out… is there a formula?

Thanks loads.

Alka
