I am working on the following problem:
I have a buried pipeline at -5C which is causing a layer of soil X meters above it to freeze after a specified time period. The soil is initially at 5C and known is all the thermal data. In order to model this, I decided to consider the soil as a...
I am working on a specific project in which I need to somehow calculate the frost bulb growth surrounding a buried pipeline. The pipeline is around -4C (Joule Thompson effect) while the surrounding soild is around 5C. The pipe is NPS 8 and uninsulated.
The question is, can anyone offer any...
