For a first guess of heat transfer


1.- Surface Area - Calculate the surface area of the tank. values are suggested: (Heat Tran
Area = π D (r + H) m²
Area = 0.33 m² For water and aqueous solutions
For light organic liquids
2.- Temperture Differential (ΔT) For heavy organic liquids
ΔT= 1100 (⁰C) For gases (combined conection r
For steam as the heating medium
3.- Calculate Total Heat Loss for Tank
Include wind factor and adjust thermal conductivity for different layers on the wall

Q = Heat flux (W/m²) X tank surface area (m²) X Wind correction Factor

Q = Heat flux (W/m²) X tank surface area (m²) X (0.036 Ws + 0.28)

Calling:
Ws = Wind velocity (mph)
Q= 1607.50 Watts
Temp. Outside Wall 1 = 808.96 °C
