A thin, flat plate that is 0.2 m × 0.2 m on a side is oriented parallel to an atmospheric airstream having a velocity of 40 m/s. The air is at a temperature of ∞T∞= 20ºC, while the plate is maintained at Ts= 120ºC. The air flows over the top and bottom surfaces of the plate, and measurement of the drag force reveals a value of 0.075 N. What is the rate of heat transfer from both sides of the plate to the air?
