Re: both lines in same insualtion
Why not answer the questions which would actually help your 'big effect' contention.
what temperature in this example do you think
a)the suction pipe is
b ) what temperature the phase change pipe is
c)which of these two is the 'hot' one in your opinion
what is the actual contact area between two touching (or not) round 8m pipes lose in a piece of lagging in sq milimetres
then calculate how much heat transfer is happening in this real life example . Please confirm if you are working on the two pipes touching 100%,75% 50% etc of the 8m as 1/2" and especially 1/4" are very difficult to get to lie straight.
Once you come back with an answer based on an actual calculation rather than a shooting from the hip 'big affect' we can confirm if it does or does not have any real effect on efficiency.
I await your 'professional engineer' response.Last edited by r.bartlett; 18-05-2016 at 11:41 PM.
