A thin, flat plate that is 0.2 m × 0.2 m on a side is oriented parallel to an atmospheric airstream having a velocity of 40 m/s. The air is at a temperature of T[infinity] = 20°C, while the plate is maintained at Ts = 120°C. The air flows over the top and bottom surfaces of the plate, and measurement of the drag force reveals a value of 0.075 N. What is the rate of heat transfer from both sides of the plate to the air?

The rate of heat transfer from both sides of the plate to the air is 240 W

Explanation:

Given;

area of the flat plate = 0.2 m × 0.2 m = 0.04 m²

velocity of atmospheric air stream, v = 40 m/s

drag force, F =  0.075 N

The rate of heat transfer from both sides of the plate to the air:

q = 2 [h'(A)(Ts -T∞)]

where;

h' is heat transfer coefficient obtained from Chilton-Colburn analogy

Properties of air at 70°C and 1 atm:

ρ = 1.018 kg/m³, cp = 1009 J/kg.K, Pr = 0.7, v = 20.22 x 10⁻⁶ m²/s

Finally;

q = 2 [ 30(0.04)(120 - 20) ]

q = 240 W

Therefore, the rate of heat transfer from both sides of the plate to the air is 240 W

answer:

try looking it up that is always
