Question: Liquid coolant at 6.2 C is passed over the surface of a 1 m-long heated plate which is at a uniform temperature of 50 C.
Liquid coolant at 6.2 C is passed over the surface of a 1 m-long heated plate which is at a uniform temperature of 50 C. The stream of coolant is travelling at 5.02 m s-1, and you are given values of Prandtl number Pr = 1.44, thermal conductivity k = 0.343 W m-1 K-1, and kinematic viscosity = 4.21x10-7 m2 s-1. You may assume that the transition to turbulence occurs at a Reynolds number Re = 5x105.
Calculate the heat transfer rate in kW m-1 over the plate (per unit width)
