A furnace heat exchanger has a cross section like that shown in Fig. 9.28. The air flows around the three thin passages in which hot gases flow. The air is at 140°F and has a density of 2.06 × 10-3slugs/ft3and a dynamic viscosity of 4.14 × 10-7lbˆ™s/ft2. Compute the Reynolds number for the flow if the velocity is 20 ft/s.
