IRstuff, I'm giving this one last try before telling the plant I cannot do this.
You're correct on my heat transfer equation. 352.2 kW was for another temp difference.
Here is the curve I'm working off of...
Thanks for the responses. No, it is definitely not a homework question, although I did write it like one. This is a real life scenario at an automotive paint shop. We are trying to cool a car body coming out of an oven. All details are existing conditions except for the air velocity. The plant...
Here's a tough one.
A 334.69kg car body with a surface area of 113 m^2 exits a oven at 124 deg C. While the car is moving at .0366 m/s, 27 deg C air is forced toward the vehicle from the lower sides at 15.24 m/s from within .30 meters away. What is the new average temperature of the car body...
