Chapter 9, Problem 9.26P
Consider an experiment to investigate the transition to turbulent flow in a tree convection boundary layer that develops along a vertical plate suspended in a large room. The plate is constructed of a thin heater that is sandwiched between two aluminum plates and may be assumed to be isothermal. The heated plate is 1 m high and 2 m wide. The quiescent air and the surroundings are both at 25°C.
(a) The exposed surfaces of the aluminum plate are painted with a very thin coating of high emissivity
(b) The experimentalist speculates that the roughness of the paint is affecting the transition to turbulence in the boundary layer and decides to remove the paint and polish the aluminum surface

Thermal energy generated by the electrical resistance of a 5-mm-diameter and 4-m- long bare cable is dissipated to the surrounding air at 80°C. The voltage drop and the electric current across the cable in steady operation are measured to be 18 V and 5 A, respectively. Disregarding radiation, estimate the surface temperature of the cable. Evaluate air properties at a film temperature of 100°C and 1 atm pressure.
