Question
Build a spreadsheet to do the step by step method for estimating the temperature of unprotected steel work exposed to the ASTM E119 Standard Fire.  Assume a convective heat transfer coefficient of 25 W/m2K and an emissivity of 0.5. Assume the specific heat to remain constant at 600 J/kgK. Use a time step of 30 seconds and an ambient temperature of 20°C. Provide an Excel plot showing the curves of the fire and a steel member through a time of 60 minutes with F/V ratios of:

a)25 m-1

b)100 m-1

c)200 m-1

d)300 m-1

Note your plot should contain 5 curves. One for the fire and one for each of the F/V values.
Also on the spreadsheet, highlight in green, the cells identifying the temperature of the unprotected steel member with an F/V of 200m-1 at the following times:

a)3 minutes

b)10 minutes

c)20 minutes

d)50 minutes
