Abstract It is important to determine the insulation thickness in the design of the
buried hot oil pipelines. The economic thickness of the insulation layer not only
meets the needs of the project but also maximizes the investment and environmental benefits. However, as a significant evaluation, the environmental factors
haven’t been considered in the previous study. Considering this factor, the mathematical model of economic insulation thickness of the buried hot oil pipelines is
built in this paper, which is solved by the golden section method while considering the costs of investment, operation, environment, the time value of money. The
environmental cost… More >
