-ood Luck! Thank you. If you want to cool a thin plate by natural convection quickly, will you hold it as shown in position a) with the long dimension parallel to the direction of gravity or in position (b) with the shorter dimension arallel to the direction of gravity and why? Assume Laminar flow.
