question

A flat plate loses heat to the atmosphere by forced convection. Air at 70°F flows over the plate at the rate of 50 ft/sec. The plate is initially at 212°F. Find (a) the length of the laminar boundary layer thickness on the plate; (b) the local coefficient of heat transfer; (c) the thickness of the velocity boundary layer; and (d) the thickness of the thermal boundary layer. Also find (e) the average coefficient of heat transfer over the laminar region.
