Water at 43.3°C flows over a large square plate at a velocity of 28 cm/s. The plate is 1.2 m long (in the flow direction) and its surface is maintained at a uniform temperature of 10.0°C. The width of the plate is 1.2 m. Calculate the steady rate of heat transfer for the entire width of the plate in watts (W). The properties of water at the film temperature of (Ts + T∞)/2 = (10 + 43.3)/2 = 27°C are ρ = 996.6  kg/m3, k = 0.610 W/m·°C, μ = 0.854 × 10–3 kg/m·s, and Pr = 5.85.

Question

Water at 43.3°C flows over a large square plate at a velocity of 28 cm/s. The plate is 1.2 m long (in the flow direction) and its surface is maintained at a uniform temperature of 10.0°C. The width of the plate is 1.2 m. Calculate the steady rate of heat transfer for the entire width of the plate in watts (W). The properties of water at the film temperature of (Ts + T)/2 = (10 + 43.3)/2 = 27°C are ρ = 996.6  kg/m3, k = 0.610 W/m·°C, μ = 0.854 × 10–3 kg/m·s, and Pr = 5.85.
