Consider a 0.5-m x 0.8-m thin square plate in a room at 25°C. One side of the plate is maintained at a temperature of 85°C, while the other side is insulated. 4.1 Determine the rate of heat transfer from the plate by natural convection if the plate is horizontal with the hot surface facing up. 4.2 Discuss the effect on the rate of heat transfer if the plate was turned upside-down with the hot surface facing down.
