Question: Question - 2 ( 3 5 points ) : Two large flat porous horizontal plates are separated by a relatively small distance ( H

Question-2(35 points): Two large flat porous horizontal plates are separated by a relatively small distance \( H \). The upper plate at \( z=H \) is at temperature \( T_{H}\), and the lower one at \( z=0\) is to be maintained at a higher temperature \( T_{0}\left(T_{0}>T_{H}\right)\). To reduce the amount of heat that must be removed from the lower plate, an ideal gas at \( T_{0}\) is blown upward with velocity \( U_{0}\) through both plates at a steady rate. Because of the low gas velocity, conduction and convection heat transfer may be comparable.
a) Obtain a differential equation for the temperature distribution in the space between two plates and specify the boundary conditions.
b) Recast the equation and boundary conditions in terms of dimensionless quantities using proper dimensionless variables (\(\theta=\) dimensionless temperature, \(\eta=\) dimensionless distance) and obtain the temperature profile.
c) Obtain an equation for the amount of heat that must be removed from the cold plate per unit area.
