Question

Mercury at 25°C flows over a 3-m-long and 2-m-wide flat plate maintained at 75°C with a velocity of 0.01 m/s. Determine the rate of heat transfer from the entire plate. 

 

 

In this diagram, we have a rectangular plate subjected to a fluid flow over its surface. The fluid is mercury, moving with a velocity (\(V\)) of 0.01 meters per second (m/s). The ambient temperature (\(T_{\infty}\)) of the mercury is 25 degrees Celsius (°C).

The surface temperature (\(T_s\)) of the plate is 75°C. The length of the plate is denoted by (\(L\)).

The arrows indicate the direction of the fluid flow across the surface of the plate. This setup can be used to study heat transfer characteristics such as convection between the mercury and the plate.
