For the vertical 30 m high plate shown in Figure 5-26, heated in still air, estimate (a) the plate surface temperature and (b) the heat transfer per unit area.


For the vertical plate shown, the Grashof number is 5x10^6 at 10 cm up from the bottom. Assuming that the air temperature surrounding the plate is 20º C and that the temperature of the plate is constant, the Grashof number
