An actual aircraft is cruising at -55.4°C, 18.8 kPa and 900 km/h. A heating system keeps the wings just above freezing temperatures of 0°C. Should the wing diameter evaluated as D = 0.5m, the following are to be determined:

(i) Estimate the suitable Nusselt number for this situation,

(ii) Compute the average convection heat transfer coefficient on the wing surface, and;

(iii) Evaluate the average rate of heat transfer per unit surface area.
