A cylindriçal fuel rod (k= 30 W/m K) of 2 cm in diameter is encased in a concentric tube and cooled by water. The fuel rod generates heat uniformly at a rate of 100 MW/m, and the average temperature of the cooling water is 80°C with a convection heat transfer coefficient of 2500 W/m--K. The operating pressure of the cooling water is such that the surface temperature pf the fuel rod must be kept below 200°C to avoid the cooling water from reaching the critical heat flux (CHF). The crițical heat flux is a thermal limit at which a boiling crisis can occur that cause overheating on the fuel rod surface and lead to damage.

Required information
A cylindriçal fuel rod (k 30 W/m K) of 2 cm in diameter is encased in a concentric tube and cooled by water. The fuel rod
generates heat uniformly at a rate of 100 MW/m, and the average temperature of the cooling water is 80°C with a
convection heat transfer coefficient of 2500 W/m4-K. The operating pressure of the cooling water is such that the surface
temperature pf the fuel rod must be kept below 200°C to avoid the cooling water from reaching the critical heat flux (CHF).
The crițical heat flux is a thermal limit at which a boiling crisis can occur that cause overheating on the fuel rod surface and
lead to damage.
