Question:
The defroster of an automobile functions by discharging warm air
on the inner surface of the
windshield. To prevent condensation of
water vapor on the surface, the temperature of the air
and the
surface convection coefficient (T_inf,i , h_i) must be large enough
to maintain a
surface temperature Ts,i that is at least as high as
the dewpoint (Ts,i ≥Tdp).

Consider a windshield of length L = 800 mm and thickness t = 6

mm and driving conditions for
which the vehicle moves at a velocity
of V = 70 mph in ambient air at T_inf,o = -15 C. From
laboratory
experiments performed on a model of the vehicle, the average
convection
coefficient on the outer surface of the windshield is
known to be correlated by an expression of
the form Nu =
0.03Re_L^0.8*Pr^1/3. Properties of the ambient air may be
approximated as k =
0.023 W/m K, v = 12.5 x 10-6 m2 /s, and Pr =
0.71. If Tdp = 10 C, and T_inf,i = 50 C, what is the
smallest value
of hi required to prevent condensation on the inner
surface?
