ABSTRACT = {The present work investigates the wall temperature prediction at supercritical pressure of water by CFD and compares the prediction of CFD and 
that of 11 empirical correlations available in literature. Supercritical-water heat transfer experimental data, covering a mass flux range of 400-1500 
kg/m<sup>2</sup>s, heat flux range of 150-1000 kW/m<sup>2</sup>, at pressure 241 bar and diameter 10 mm tube, were obtained from literature. CFD simulations have
been carried out for those operating conditions and compared with experimental data. Around 362 experimental wall temperature data of both 
heat transfer enhancement and heat transfer deterioration region have been taken for comparison. A visual Basic program has also been developed 
to predict wall temperature for the selected empirical correlations and compared with those of 362 experimental data. Ranking based on the 
deviation with experimental data is also listed.},
