Heat transfer co-efficient, hG(Kcal/hr.m2 .C) and mass velocity of air, G (kg/hr.m2 ) for air flow parallel to the surface in case of constant drying rate in batch drying is related as hG = 0.0176G0.8. But when the flow of air perpendicular to the surface is encountered, this equation changes to ____________________?

A. hG = 1.004G0.37

B. 1.004G0.8

C. hG = 0.0176G0.37

D. 0.0176G1.37
