Repeat Prob. 19€“22 for a location at an elevation of 1610 m where the atmospheric pressure is 83.4 kPa.

Repeat Prob.

An array of power transistors, dissipating 6 W of power each, are to be cooled by mounting them on a 25-cm × 25-cm-square aluminum plate and blowing air at 35°C over the plate with a fan at a velocity of 4 m/s. The average temperature of the plate is not to exceed 65°C. Assuming the heat transfer from the back side of the plate to be negligible and disregarding radiation, determine the number of transistors that can be placed on this plate.
