In some cases, a flat plate is sufficiently long for the flow to
become turbulent, but not long enough to disregard the laminar
flow region.
In such cases, the average friction coefficient over the entire
plate is determined by performing the integration over two
parts: the laminar region 0 x xcr and the turbulent region
xcr < x L as

Problem:
The forming section of a plastics plant puts out a continuous sheet
of plastic that is 1.2 m wide and 2 mm thick at a rate of 15 m/min.
The temperature of the plastic sheet is 90C when it is exposed to
the surrounding air, and the sheet is subjected to air flow at 30C at
a velocity of 3 m/s on both sides along its surfaces normal to the
direction of motion of the sheet. The width of the air cooling
section is such that a fixed point on the plastic sheet passes
through that section in 2 s. Determine the rate of heat transfer from
the plastic sheet to the air.

Solution:
Air flows on both sides of a continuous sheet of plastic. The rate of
heat transfer from the plastic sheet is to be determined.
Assumptions: 1 Steady operating conditions exist.
2 The critical Reynolds number is Recr = 5105.
3 Radiation effects are negligible.
4 Air is an ideal gas with constant properties.
Properties The properties of air at 1 atm and the film temperature
of (Ts + T)/2 = (90+30)/2 =60C are
which is less than the critical Reynolds number. Thus the flow is
laminar. Using the proper relation in laminar flow for Nusselt
number, the average heat transfer coefficient and the heat transfer
rate are determined to be
