Question
As shown in the figure, electrical heaters
operating in the V-220 V are placed on the lower
surface of the square-shaped horizontal aluminum
plate with a length and width of 1.2 m. Air at a temperature
of 27 °C flows from the upper surface of the plate in parallel at 15 m/s. Since the bottom surface
of the plate is fully insulated, what should the value of the current () passing through the
electrical elements be so that the temperature of the plate does not exceed 77 °C?
