Jean,
If you have the loss coefficient as W/m.K you need to know whether the
length that they are talking about is per unit length of pipe/duct or
per unit thickness of the insulating material. From that, you should be
able to find out what the relevant loss coefficient per unit area of the
pipe surface is using formulas from a basic heat transfer text book.
Kind regards,
David
