What is the estimated value of kc? What are the units of kc? Show your work.
The following values were measured:
D = 8.0 mm, DAB = 0.475 cm²/s, µ = 1.12 x 103 N-s/m², p = 1.00 x 10-³ g/cm³, v = 15.0 m/s.
Pressure drop AP depends on four variables: the diameter of the pipe D, the density of the fluid p, the
kinematic viscosity of the fluid v and the mean velocity v. Applying Buckinham's Pi Theorem, a
dimensionless pi-group can be identified using the following power product: [AP] = [D]ª[p]b[v][v]ª.

To understand the heat transfer from a bar in cross flow, you conduct a series of
experiments measuring the average heat transfer coefficient as a function of the free stream
velocity. A schematic of the experiment and the accompanying results are shown below.

a) You expect the important dimensionless parameters to be related by a function of
the form
Nu = CRe Pr
where C, m, and n are constants. The film temperature in both the experiments is
approximately the same. Use the given experimental results to determine the
constant m
b) Calculate h for L = 0.75 m and V = 30 m/s.
