An electronic device that internally generates 600 mW of heat has a maximum permissible operating temperature of 70C. It is to be cooled in 25C air by attaching aluminum fins with a total surface area of 12cm2. The convection heat transfer coefficient between the fins and the air is 20W/m2K.

1.67 In beauty salons and in homes, a ubiquitous device is the hairdryer. The front end of a typical hairdryer is idealized as a thin-walled cylindrical duct with a 6-cm diameter with a fan at the inlet that blows air over an electric heating coil as schematically shown in the figure. The design of this appliance requires two power settings, with which the air blown over the electric heating coil is heated from the ambient temperature of to an outlet temperature of and with exit air velocities of 1.0 m/s and 1.5 m/s. Estimate the electric power required for the heating coil to meet these conditions, assuming that heat loss from the outside of the dryer duct is neglected.
