Cold Pipe Heat Loss Calculator

Below Calculator could be used to to calculate the heat loss from a cold pipe/cylindrical surface to ambient in natural convection fluid flow. The calculator solves for both the horizontal and vertical orientation for the pipe/cylinder.

For a particular desired/tested external temperature, many cases such as below or various others could be solved:

  1. Heat loss from a pipe or tube carrying cold fluid
  2. Heat loss from cold solid cylinder or rod or tube
  3. Heat loss from insulated cryogenic hoses
  4. Heat loss from PU Foam insulated pipes
