Example
Cooling at high elevation. Consider the heat transfer
from a flat plate that is 6m by 1.5m and held at a fixed
temperature of 134 oC. The plate is located in Denver
Colorado at high elevation, where the atmospheric
pressure is 83.4 kPa. Air at this pressure flows over
the plate at 8m/s and a temperature of 20 oC.
Assumptions
• Steady/stationary
• Rex,cr = 5 e5
• No Radiation
• Air is an ideal gas
• k, mu, cp and Pr are independent of pressure.
