Hi Meagan,

if the plate is cooled from both sides, you have to
replace
h*(Text-T)
by
2/(thickness of the plate)*h*(Text-T) ;
if it is cooled only from one side, you have to replace
h*(Text-T)
by
1/(thickness of the plate)*h*(Text-T) ;
if it is cooled differently from up and down,
you have to replace
h*(Text-T) by
(h_up*(Text_up-T) + h_down*(Text_down-T))/
(thickness of the plate).

Best wishes
Torsten.
