Question
Laminar flow normally persists on a smooth flat plate until a critical Reynolds number value is reached. However, the flow can be
tripped to a turbulent state by adding roughness to the leading edge of the plate. For a particular situation, experimental results show
that the local heat transfer coefficients for laminar and turbulent conditions are hx,lam = (1.74 W / m¹.5 · K ) x-0.5 and
hx,turb= (3.98 W/m²
1.8
K ) x-0.2, respectively. Calculate the average heat transfer coefficients, in W/m².K for laminar and
turbulent conditions for plates of length L = 0.1 m.
