There is a flow of air that circulates over a flat plate that is used to store a food product at a temperature of 95 ° C throughout its surface. The air flows at a speed of 2.5 m/s and has a temperature of 25.0°C. The plate measures 600.0 mm · 300.00 mm.
As a task assigned by your plant operations manager, you are asked to answer the following questions:
i. Determine the heat loss from the plate if the air flows parallel to the 600.00-mm side.ii. How would this heat loss be affected if the airflow is made parallel to the 300.0-mm side?
For this type of configuration, the coefficient of heat transfer by forced convection, h, can be obtained from the relation

pressure and air temperature 20 ̊C. Air density = 1.20 kg/m3 also determine the precipitation intensity if the surface
