The surface tension of water, a needed quantity in several of the following problems, is related to temperature according to the expression σ = 0.1232 [1 − 0.00146 T] , where σ is in N/m and T is in K. In the English system with σ given in lbf/ft and T in ?F, the surface tension may be calculated from σ = (8.44 × 10−3) [1 = 0.00082 T].

A horizontal circular cylinder 1 in. in diameter has its outside surface at a temperature of 1200°F . This tube is immersed in saturated water at a pressure of 40 psi. Estimate the heat flux due to film boiling that may be achieved with this configuration. At 40 psi, the temperature of saturated water is 267°F.
