Consider a liquid metal (Pr 1), with free stream

Chapter , Problem 7.4

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider a liquid metal (Pr 1), with free stream conditions u and T, in parallel flow over an isothermal flat plate at Ts. Assuming that u u throughout the thermal boundary layer, write the corresponding form of the boundary layer energy equation. Applying appropriate initial (x 0) and boundary conditions, solve this equation for the boundary layer temperature field, T(x, y). Use the result to obtain an expression for the local Nusselt number Nux. Hint: This problem is analogous to one-dimensional heat transfer in a semiinfinite medium with a sudden change in surface temperature.
