Plate surface temperature Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Plate Surface Temperature = 2*Film temperature-Free Stream Fluid Temperature
T_w = 2*Tf-T∞
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Plate Surface Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Plate surface temperature is the temperature at the surface of the plate.
Film temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Film temperature is the temperature value of the Film.
Free Stream Fluid Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Free stream fluid temperature is the temperature of the fluid in free stream velocity.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Film temperature: 50 Celsius --> 323.15 Kelvin (Check conversion here)
Free Stream Fluid Temperature: 70 Celsius --> 343.15 Kelvin (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_w = 2*Tf-T∞ --> 2*323.15-343.15

Evaluating ... ...

What is external flow?

In fluid mechanics, external flow is such a flow that boundary layers develop freely, without constraints imposed by adjacent surfaces. Accordingly, there will always exist a region of the flow outside the boundary layer in which velocity, temperature, and/or concentration gradients are negligible. It can be defined as the flow of a fluid around a body that is completely submerged in it.
An example includes fluid motion over a flat plate (inclined or parallel to the free stream velocity) and flow over curved surfaces such as a sphere, cylinder, airfoil, or turbine blade, air flowing around an airplane and water flowing around the submarines.

How to Calculate Plate surface temperature?

Plate surface temperature calculator uses Plate Surface Temperature = 2*Film temperature-Free Stream Fluid Temperature to calculate the Plate Surface Temperature, Plate surface temperature formula is defined as the temperature at the surface of a plate in a fluid flow, which is a critical parameter in heat transfer and fluid dynamics, particularly in the context of flow over a flat plate. Plate Surface Temperature is denoted by T_w symbol.
