Atmospheric air with T∞= 300 K and U∞= 2.1 m/s flows parallel to a flat surface. The surface temperature is 325 K. Experiments with laminar boundary-layer flow have shown that Nux∼ RenxPr1/3. At locations where the distances from the leading edge are x = 0.42 m and x = 1.5 m, the wall heat fluxes are measured to be 107 W m2 s and 57 W m2 s, respectively. What would the evaporation mass fluxes be at these locations if, instead of a heated surface, the surface was at thermal equilibrium with air, the air was dry, and the surface was wetted with water?
