Cold conditioned air at 10°C is flowing inside a 1.5 cm thick square aluminum (k = 240 w/mK) duct of inner cross section of 25x25cm at a mass flow rate of 1.0 kg/s. The duct is exposed to air at 35°C with a combined convection-radiation heat transfer coefficient of 15 W/m2K. The convection heat transfer coefficient at the inner surface is 75 W/.m2.K. If the air temperature in the duct should not increase by more than 1°C determine the maximum...
