A 20 °C water flows to 50cmx60cm flat plate with velocity of 3m/s . The flat plate surface temperature is maintained at 40 °C. The air flows parallel to the 50cm side of the plate. If the kinematic viscosity of water is 78x10-8 m2/s, at what length the flow become turbulent?
Air at 295 K flows at 3 m/s over a flat plate at 390 K. The air properties are as follows: density =1.1 kg/m3, viscosity =18.1×10−6 Pa.s, specific heat capacity =1005 J/kgK, and thermal conductivity =0.024 W/mK.
