A bare fuel rod has a diameter of 0.373 in and length of 12 ft. The volumetric heat generation rate for this rod is q′′′ = 10,000 kW/ft3. The heat produced by the rod is removed by water used as the coolant, at 2250 psia and 575 F. Find the heat transfer coefficient between the bare fuel rod and the coolant.The fuel rod surface temperature is 675 F

A bare fuel rod has a diameter of 0.373 in and length of 12 ft. The volumetric heat generation rate for this rod is q′′′ = 10,000 kW/ft3. The heat produced by the rod is removed by water used as the coolant, at 2250 psia and 575 F. Find the heat transfer coefficient between the bare fuel rod and the coolant.The fuel rod surface temperature is 675 F

32. A bare fuel rod has a diameter of 0.373 in and length of 12 ft. The volumetric
heat generation rate for this rod is 4" = 10,000 kW/ft'. The heat produced by the
rod is removed by water used as the coolant, at 2250 psia and 575 F. Find the heat
transfer coefficient between the bare fuel rod and the coolant. The fuel rod sur-
face temperature is 675 F. [Ans.: h = 2651 Btu/h-ft².F].
