Complete Question
Air at 40C flows over a 2 m long flat plate with a free stream velocity of 7m/s. Assume the width of the plate (into the paper) is 0.5 m. If the plate is at a co temperature of 100C,find:
The total heat transfer rate from the plate to the air
Answer:
[tex]q=1.7845[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Air Temperature [tex]T_1=40c[/tex]
Length [tex]l=2m[/tex]
Velocity [tex]v=7m/s[/tex]
Width [tex]w=0.5[/tex]
Constant temperature [tex]T_t= 100C[/tex]
Generally the equation for Total heat Transfer is mathematically given by
[tex]q=hA(T_s-T_\infty)[/tex]
Where
h=Convective heat transfer coefficient
[tex]h=29.9075w/m^2k[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]q=h(L*B)(T_s-T_\infty)[/tex]
[tex]q=29.9075*(2*0.5)(100+273-(40+273))[/tex]
[tex]q=1794.45w[/tex]
[tex]q=1.7845[/tex]
