A small thermo-couple is positioned in a thermal boundary layer near a flat plate past which water flows at 30 degree Celsius and 0.15 m/s. The plate is heated to a surface temperature of 50 degree Celsius and at the location of the probe, the thickness of thermal boundary layer is 15 mm. If the temperature profile as measured by the probe is well-represented by t t S/t INFINITY t S = 1.5 (y/ t) 0.5 (y/ t) 3
