A metal-clad electrical heating element of cylindrical shape, as shown in the sketch below, is immersed in water at atmospheric pressure. The element has a 5 cm diameter and heat generation produces a surface temperature of 300?C. Estimate the heat flux under steady state conditions and the rate of heat generation per unit length.GIVENCylindrical, electrical heating elementHeat generation produces a 300?C surface temperatureASSUMPTIONSThe system operates at atmospheric pressureThe heater surface isblack
