Good evening,
I have a question which I am struggling to find an adequate answer for and wondering if you could point me in the right direction.
I have attached a photo to demonstrate what I am trying to explain.
The photo shows a heat source (approx. 1000-1200 degrees C) going underneath a tower where there are a number of 316L St/St pipework roughly 1.5-2m above this heat source. I am looking to find an equation that I could use to give a answer to the pipes temperature on the surface reaches over a given period of time through exposure to this heat source at a given distance away. The pipe is considered to be empty for a period of time until water is released and enters through these sections of pipe.
Thank you.
