Air at an average temperature of 150°C flows through a short square duct 10 × 10 × 2.25 cm at a rate of 15 kg/h. The duct wall temperature is 430°C. Determine the average heat transfer coefficient, using the duct equation with appropriate L/D correction. Compare your results with flow-over-flat-plate relations.
