A thin-walled copper tube of an outside radius of 0.01 m contains steam at 400 K and the surrounding air is at a temperature of 300 k. The tube is insulated with insulation of conductivity of 0.07 W/mk and the external convective coefficient is 4 W/m2k. Find the percentage increase in the rate of the heat transfer with a thickness of insulation with respect to no use of insulation per meter length of the tube (up to one decimal place)

Enter numerical value using the virtual keypad. Round off where necessary.
