Liquid pipes thermal insulation

"all pipes have a thermal insulation equal to zero"

I very much doubt that

and you'll need to provide a save file for the devs to look at or they will most likely ignore this bug report

I meant that ordinary pipes made of thermo insulating material and thermally insulated pipes made of thermo insulating material have thermal insulation equal to zero

Is it not the intended value of the "insulation" material ?

Not exactly. Even though it looks like 0.0000, it's actually not zero. It has some really small number.

And all insulation pipes have 20 (if I'm not mistaken) times less thermal conductivity.

The actual problem is that temperature exchange between pipe content and the pipe itself calculates differently than the pipe and surrounding tiles/liquid/gases. For example, if you submerge an insulated pipe made of insulation into liquid oxygen there would be no temperature exchange between them. But if pipe some liquid oxygen through that pipe then the pipe will gradually cool down.
