Question: air at atmospheric pressure and a temperature of 25 degrees...
Question details
Air at atmospheric pressure and a temperature of 25 degrees C is in parallel flow at a velocity of 5 m/s over a 1-m-long flat plate that is heated from below with a uniform heat flux of 1250 W/m2 . Assume the flow is fully turbulent over the length of the plate. Take ν = 18.76 × 10−6 m2/s, k = 0.0284 W/m·K and Pr =0.703. (a) Calculate the plate surface temperature, Ts(L), and the local convection coefficient, hx(L), at the trailing edge, x = L. (b) Calculate the average temperature of the plate surface.
