Description and Specification for Lab Tenders
Heat Transfer Through Lagged Pipe.
The setup is designed and fabricated to study lagging phenomenon in case
of pipes. It consists of three concentric pipes of small thickness as
compared to diameter and are arranged concentrically, and closed with
the help of two discs. Two different insulating materials fill the
annuli between the cylinders compactly. Temperature Sensors are fitted
to measure the temperature of pipe walls for radial outward heat flow
measurement. Inside the inner pipe, a Nichrome wire heater is placed
axially. Heat input to the heater is given through a variac and measured
by Digital Voltmeter and Digital Ammeter.
