A computer software, available upon request,
designed to calculate thickness of the insulation material.
To use this software, for cold line insulation, need to obtain
the ambient weather conditions & line size as programe inputs. Recommended thickness is the miniumum value
to prevent line condensation. On chiller insulation, need to have the
actual outer diameter of pipe, & not the nominal pipe size.
On hot water pipe, material thickness keys in
as program input to calculate heat loss, in watt/m2.
