Textbook Question

Chapter 7, Problem 7.127P

Condenser cooling water for a power plant is stored in a cooling pond that is 1000m long by 500m wide. However, because of evaporative losses, it is necessary to periodically add "makeup" water to the pond in order to maintain a suitable water level. Assuming isothermal conditions at 27 ° C for the water and the air, that the free stream air is dry and moving at a velocity of 2 m/s in the direction of the 1000-m pond length, and that the boundary layer on the water surface is everywhere turbulent, determine the amount of makeup water that should be added to the pond daily.

Air stream at 1 atm flows with a velocity of 2 m/s, in parallel over a 3 m long square flat plate, placed on ground, where there is an unheated starting length of 1 m. The air stream has a temperature of 20 °C and the heated section of the flat plate is maintained at a constant temperature of 80 °C. Determine the local heat transfer coefficient at trailing edge and average convection heat transfer coefficient for the heated section. Also calculate the heat loss by convection. Determine the average friction coefficient and wall shear stress and drag force.

Water at 25°C and 1 atm is flowing over a long flat plate with a velocity of 8 m/s. Determine the distance from the leading edge of the plate where the flow becomes turbulent, and the thickness of the boundary layer at that location.

Thermal energy generated by the electrical resistance of a 5-mm-diameter and 4-m- long bare cable is dissipated to the surrounding air at 80°C. The voltage drop and the electric current across the cable in steady operation are measured to be 18 V and 5 A, respectively. Disregarding radiation, estimate the surface temperature of the cable. Evaluate air properties at a film temperature of 100°C and 1 atm pressure.
