The lower surface of a flat Teflon plate (k=0.35 W/(m.K),ρ=2200 kg/m3 and cp=1500 J/(kg.K) with 2 m long and 60 mm thick is heated by radiation from infrared lamps that emit a constant flux over this surface, while its opposite surface exchanges heat by convection with an air stream at 15oC flowing parallel to its length, with speed of 15 m/s. The temperature of surface 1 (T1) is maintained at 60oC by lamp irradiation and surface temperature 2 (T2) is not known. Under steady-state conditions for heat transfer, it is requested: (a) Estimate the film coefficient for convection heat exchange (consider the free current temperature to estimate the physical properties); (b) Estimate the temperature T2 and the heat flux provided by the heating lamps Table below about the physical properties of air at 1 atm
