In subsea oil and natural gas production, hydrocarbon fluids may leave the reservoir with a temperature of 70°C and flow in subsea surrounding of S°C. As a result of the temperature difference between the reservoir and the subsea surrounding, the knowledge of heat transfer is critical to prevent gas hydrate and wax deposition blockages. Consider a subsea pipeline with inner diameter of O. S m and wall thickness of 8 mm is used for transporting liquid hydrocarbon at an average temperature of 70°C, and the average convection heat transfer coefficient on the inner pipeline surface is estimated to be 2SO W/m2.K. The subsea surrounding has a temperature of soc and the average convection heat transfer coefficient on the outer pipeline surface is estimated to be ISO W /m2 .K. If the pipeline is made of material with thermal conductivity of 60 W/m. K, by using the heat conduction equation (a) obtain the temperature variation in the pipeline wall, (b) determine the inner surface temperature of the pipeline wall, (c) obtain the mathematical expression for the rate of heat loss from the liquid hydrocarbon in the pipeline, and (d) determine the heat flux through the outer pipeline surface.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
