Example 2: The local atmospheric pressure in Denver, Colorado (elevation 1610 m), is 83.4 kPa. Air at this pressure is 20°C flows with a velocity of 8 m/s over a 1.5 m  6 m flat plate whose temperature is 140°C (Figure). Determine the rate of heat transfer from the plate if the air flows parallel to the (a) 6-m-long side and (b) the 1.5-m side.

Example 2: The local atmospheric pressure in Denver, Colorado (elevation 1610 m), is 83.4 kPa. Air at this pressure is 20°C flows with a velocity of 8 m/s over a 1.5 m  6 m flat plate whose temperature is 140°C (Figure). Determine the rate of heat transfer from the plate if the air flows parallel to the (a) 6-m-long side and (b) the 1.5-m side.
