Calculate the maximum safe heat flux in the nucleate-boiling regime for water flowing at a velocity of 15 m/s through a 1.2-cm-ID tube 0.31-m-long if the water enters at 100 kPa pressure and 100°C saturated liquid.

GIVEN
? Nucleate boiling of water flowing through a tube

? Water pressure (p) = 1 atm
? Water temperature (Tw) = 100°C
FIND
? The maximum safe heat flux in the nucleate boiling regime (q?max)
ASSUMPTIONS
? Steady state
