Thermal anemometry is used to determine the mass flow rate of water through a pipe. A wire dissipating heat is installed in the pipe. Upstream of the wire, the temperature is measured to be 20.3 C. Well downstream of the wire, where the fluid is sufficiently mixed, the temperature is measured to be 25.4 C. If the voltage across the wire is 2 V and the current is measured to be 6 mA, what is the mass flow rate of water in the pipe in g/min?
