Abstract
This paper gives the results of experimental investigations of heat transfer from underground pipelines in unsteady-state thermal conditions by means of a physical model in which the thermal conductivity of the soil and the diameter and depth of burial of the pipes were varied. The experimental data are compared with known theoretical results and the range of validity of previously proposed design equations are determined.
