    Parameters
    ----------
    Re : float
        Reynolds number with bulk fluid properties, [-]
    Pr : float
        Prandtl number with bulk fluid properties [-]
    Cp_avg : float, optional
        Average heat capacity between the wall and bulk temperatures, [J/kg/K]
    Cp_b : float, optional
        Heat capacity at the bulk temperature, [J/kg/K]
    k_w : float, optional
        Thermal conductivity at the wall temperature, [W/m/K]
    k_b : float, optional
        Thermal conductivity at the bulk temperature, [W/m/K]
    mu_w : float, optional
        Viscosity at the wall temperature, [Pa*s]
    mu_b : float, optional
        Viscosity at the bulk temperature, [Pa*s]

    Returns
    -------
    Nu : float
        Nusselt number with bulk fluid properties, [-]

    Notes
    -----
    For the data used to develop the correlation, P varied from 22.3 to 32 MPa,
    Re varied from 2E4 to 8.6E6, Pr from 0.86-86, viscosity ration from 0.9 to 
    3.6, thermal conductivity ratio from 1 to 6, and heat capacity ratio from
    0.07 to 4.5.
    
    For the heat transfer database in [3]_, this correlation was 14th most
    accurate.
    
    If the extra heat capacity, viscosity, and thermal conductivity 
    information is not provided, it will not be used.
