    shaft and its bearing. If the bearing and the

    shaft are kept at 10C and 30C respectively and

    the clearance between them is 2mm,determine

    the maximum temperature rise and the heat

    flux to the plates for a velocity U = 6 m/s.

    Example :

    Air at 20 is flowing along a heated flat plate

    at 134at a velocity of 3 m/s. the plate is 2m

    long and 1.5m wide. Calculate the thickness of

    the hydrodynamic boundary layer and the skin

    friction coefficient at 40 cm from the leadingedge of the plate. The kinematic viscosity of air

    at 20may be taken as 15.06 x 106m2/s.
