Insulation Requirements for Steam Lines

The document contains information about insulation requirements for steam lines. It provides temperature measurements for the outer wall and ambient conditions. It also lists the thermal conductivity of the insulation material used. Calculations are shown to determine the minimum insulation thickness required to match the left and right sides of an equation, with notes to adjust the thickness to make the sides equal.
