Dear all,

 

How can i calculate the overall heat transfer co-efficient of an insulated tank(CS+35 mm PUF Insulation) and could anyone explain me the relation of wind speed and heat transfer co-efficient.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards

Thank you sir.

 

But the above one is for pipeline and in my case it is a sphere. is it the same?

Consider this resource to support , I did not pay attention enough about your query (sphere) . Google  is your best friend for such problem !

Is your tank mixed or stagnant?  If it is not mixed thoroughly then any heat transfer coefficient you calculate will be wrong.

 

There is an article on this site for heat transfer in agitated tanks with insulation.
