That is probably enough to rupture the submerged pipe. Why one would want to do this is a bit hard to figure out, though; but it might be a nice classroom demonstration. I would prefer not to be standing around.

It does rather depend upon what the liquid is that can remain liquid at 400degC. Now, it could be supercritical water/steam if it can be contained well enough, perhaps?

There was another thread on this topic a few weeks back. Sooner or later, the CR4 reader will get bored.....

Not a recommended practice, due to dangers it imposes to any one in the area.
