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:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Air Temperature
Length
Velocity
Width
Constant temperature
Generally the equation for Total heat Transfer is mathematically given by
Where
h=Convective heat transfer coefficient

Answer:
123.9 Btu
Explanation:
The energy balance on the air is:
∆E = E2 − E1 = ∆KE + ∆PE + ∆U = Q + W
ignore ∆KE and ∆PE,
W = ∆U − Q = m(u2 − u1) − Q; (u2 − u1 = 51.94 Btu/lb)
ideal gas properties is attached
W = (2 lb)(143.98 − 92.04) Btu/lb − (− 20 Btu) = 123.9 Btu
u2 − u1 ≈ cv(T2 − T1) = (0.173 Btu/lb°R)(840 − 540) °R = 51.9 Btu/lb
