If you are still interested in flow rates, here is what we do at the
UC Berkeley Microlab.

Typical flow parameters during normal operations in a 4" wafer processing
line, 155 mm ID tubes are:

1. Dry oxidation: O2 flow of 4.0 slm.

2. Anneal: N2 flow of 4.0 slm.

3. Wet Oxidation: We produce steam by a drip system which evaporates the
                  water when it hits a heated plate. The system delivers
                  3.8 to 4.2 ml/min of water under 10.5 psi water pressure.
                  The oxigen flow is 0.2 slm.

4. Ramp up: with N2 flow of 1.0 slm.

5. Boat loading/unloading: N2 flow of 1.0 slm.

6. Idle conditions: N2 flow of 1.0 slm.

Have a good process
