Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 6.20P
Consider the flow conditions of Example 6.4 for two situations, one in which the flow is completely laminar, and the second for flow that is tripped to turbulence at the leading edge of the plate. Determine whether there is a plate length L for which the average convection coefficient for laminar flow is the same as the average convection coefficient for turbulent flow. Assume a water temperature of 300 K.

Problem#4* - Design the optimal location of triggering flow transition to maximize the cooling
efficiency of a flat plate.
The boundary layer associated with parallel flow over an isothermal plate may be "tripped" at any x-
location by using a fine wire that is stretched across the width of the plate. Determine the value of the
critical Reynolds number Rex,c, that is associated with the optimal location of the trip wire from the leading
edge that will result in maximum heat transfer from a warm plate to a cooler fluid. Assume the Nusselt
number correlations provided in the text for laminar and turbulent flows apply in the laminar and turbulent
regions (mixing laminar and turbulent flows, CASE C in your handout notes), respectively.
A 0.5-m diameter uninsulated pipe transports high-temperature steam. Its surface temperature is 150°C
and it is exposed to air at -10°C. The air moves in cross flow over the pipe with a velocity of 5 m/s. To
compute for the Nusselt number of the air flow, what is the exact value of the temperature in °C on
which the air properties should be based?
(v) Air at a pressure of 1 atm and a temperature of 50°C is in parallel flow
over the top surface of a flat plate that is heated to a uniform temperature of 100°C.
The plate has a length of 0.20 m (in the flow direction) and a width of 0.10 m. The
Reynolds number based on the plate length is 60,000. What is the rate of heat transfer
from the plate to the air? If the free stream velocity of the air is triple and the pressure
is increased to 10 atm, what is the rate of heat transfer, 8t ,8, C fx-0.17 Now if the case
with constant heat flux (580 w/m²) find surface temperature, Nu,,Nu, with second
value of velocity.
