A 212-mm-square, 15-mm-thick tile has the thermo-physical properties of Pyrex (ϵ = 0.83) and emerges from a curing process at an initial temperature of Ti = 145°C. The backside of the tile is insulated while the upper surface is exposed to ambient air and surroundings at 25°C.
(a) Estimate the time required for the tile to cool to a final, safe-to-touch temperature of Tf = 42°C. Use an average tile surface temperature of T¯=(Ti+Tf)/2 to estimate the average free convection coefficient and the linearized radiation coefficient. How sensitive is your estimate to the assumed value for T¯?
(b) Estimate the required cooling time if ambient air is blown in parallel flow over the tile with a velocity of 10 m/s
The author and his then 6-year-old son have conducted the following experiment to determine the thermal conductivity of a hot dog. They first boiled water in a large pan and measured the temperature of the boiling water to be 94°C, which is not surprising, since they live at an elevation of about 1650 m in Reno, Nevada. They then took a hot dog that is 12.5 cm long and 2.2 cm in diameter and inserted a thermocouple into the midpoint of the hot dog and another thermocouple just under the skin. They waited until both thermocouples read 20°C, which is the ambient temperature. They then dropped the hot dog into boiling water and observed the changes in both temperatures. Exactly 2 min after the hot dog was dropped into the boiling water, they recorded the center and the surface temperatures to be 59°C and 88°C, respectively. The density of the hot dog can be taken to be 980 kg/m3, which is slightly less than the density of water, since the hot dog was observed to be floating in water while…
