Hey you all,
I have a practice exam problem which is causing some difficulty for me.
Basically I have a fully developed flow through two parallel plates. One plate has a constant heat flux and the other plate is heavily insulated.
I have found the velocity profile: U=2*Uinf*(1-r^2/h^2)
where h is the radius.
Now I have set up the boundary condition to solve the differential equation but I'm confused on which equation to use. There is a general equation (I would post it here but its too messy) that will solve temperature distributions in a tube. With these equations, however, there is either a constant temperature or constant flux around the whole boundary.
I am confused on how to go about solving this problem, any advice will help! Thank you.
