3. For laminar free convection from a heated vertical surface, the local convection coefficient may be expressed as hx=Cx-1/4, where hx is the coefficient at a distance x from the leading edge of the surface and the quantity C, which depends on the fluid properties, is independent of x. Obtain an expression for the ratio Пx/hx, where x is the average coefficient between the leading edge (x = 0) and the x-location. Sketch the variation of hx and hx with x. Answer: N/A

3. For laminar free convection from a heated vertical surface, the local convection coefficient
may be expressed as hx=Cx-1/4, where hx is the coefficient at a distance x from the leading
edge of the surface and the quantity C, which depends on the fluid properties, is
independent of x.
Obtain an expression for the ratio Пx/hx, where x is the average coefficient between the
leading edge (x = 0) and the x-location. Sketch the variation of hx and hx with x.
