Applied Energy, 1982, vol. 11, issue 1, 15-34

Abstract: The concept of internally lining pipes to achieve the required degree of thermal insulation is examined with respect to minimising the rate of energy losses. Suggestions are made concerning the optimal dimensions for district-heating horizontal pipelines conveying hot water at 95°C. These design recommendations arise out of the presented analysis for minimising the total rate of financial expenditure upon energy for pumping and heating the water.
