Problem Statement: A can of engine oil with a length of $150$ mm and a diameter of $100$ mm is placed vertically in the trunk of a car. On a hot summer day, the temperature in the trunk is $43C.$ If the surface temperature of the can is $17C,$ determine heat transfer rate from the can surface. Neglect the heat transfer from the ends of the can.

Properties: $=0\mathrm{.}0033K^{-1},v=1\mathrm{.}608{10}^{-5}\frac{m^2}{s},Pr=0\mathrm{.}7282,k=0\mathrm{.}02588\frac{W}{m*K}$
