Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Abstract

A procedure is described for determining heat losses. The procedure establishes the content of work on determining heat losses through the insulation of hot-water pipes and the way of carrying it out and is extended to all steam and water-filled hot-water pipes (above and below ground) employed in heat-distribution, housing-block, and main-line heating networks.
