Question
An array of 190 electrical components, each dissipating P = 35 W, are attached to the bottom surface of a square copper
plate. The length of the edge of the square plate is L= 0.1 m. All of the energy dissipated in the electrical components is
transferred to water flowing over the top surface of the copper plate. The water flow over the plate in a direction that is
parallel to the edge of the plate. A proturbence at the leading edge of the plate acts to trip the bounary layer into turbulent
flow. The plate may be assumed to be isothermal since the thermal conductivity of copper is so high. The water velocity
and temperature far from the plate are u» = 2.3 m/s and To = 22 °C. The water's thermophysical properties (for application
in correlations for the Nusselt number) may be approximated as v = 0.96×10-6 m2/s, kf = 0.62 W/m-K, and Pr = 5.2. What is
the temperature of the copper plate in °C?
