Determine inlet air velocity and volumetric flow rate


The electronic components of a computer are cooled by air flowing through a fan mounted at the inlet of the electronics enclose, which is similiar to heat exchanger. at steady state, air enters at 22 celcius degree and 101kg. for spatial restictions, the cross sectional diameter of the air inlet port into the enclosure is limited to 5 cm. for temperature control. the temperature of the air has to be 33 celcius degree. the electronic componets and fan receive 100w of elctric power. heat transfer through the enclosure surfaces to the surrounding is negligle . the changes in kinetic and potential energies can be ignored. The specific heat of air can be estimated from the .appropriate table. Determine the inlet air velocity in m/s and volumetric flow rate in L/min.
