17-65C When the diameter of cylinder is very small compared to its length, it can be treated as an infinitely long cylinder.
17-66C No. In steady-operation the temperature of a solid cylinder or sphere does not change in radial direction (unless there
is heat generation).

17-68 A steam pipe covered with 17-cm thick glass wool insulation is subjected to convection on its surfaces. The rate of
heat transfer per unit length and the temperature drops across the pipe and the insulation are to be determined.
Assumptions 1 Heat transfer is steady since there is no indication of any change with time. 2 Heat transfer is one-
dimensional since there is thermal symmetry about the center line and no variation in the axial direction. 3 Thermal
conductivities are constant. 4 The thermal contact resistance at the interface is negligible.

the annual cost of this heat loss, and the thickness of fiberglass insulation needed to save 90 percent of the heat lost are to be
determined.
