An ASTM F441 chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) tube is embedded in a vertical concrete wall (

k=2(W)/(m)*K

). The wall has a height of 1.7 m , and one surface of the wall is subjected to convection with hot air at

140\deg C

. The distance measured from the plate's surface that is exposed to the hot air to the tube surface is

d=2.5cm

. The ASME Code for Process Piping limits the maximum use tem- perature for ASTM F441 CPVC tube to

93.3\deg C

(ASME B31.3- 2014, Table B-1). If the concrete surface that is exposed to the hot air is at

100\deg C

, would the CPVC tube embedded in the wall still comply with the ASME code? Enter the CPVC tube temperature in degrees Celsius using one decimal place.
