In a drying experiment, the constant rate of drying is found to be 3.6 kg water m-2 h-1. Dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures of the drying air are 75°C and 37°C, respectively. Latent heats of vaporization at the dry bulb and the wet bulb temperatures are 2321 and 2414 kJ kg-1, respectively. Convective heat transfer coefficient in W m-2 K-1 for the drying operation is

Correct : 63
