A hot brass plate is having its upper surface cooled by impinging jet of air at temperature of 15°C and convection heat transfer coefficient of 220 W/m^2•K. The 10-cm thick brass plate (rho = 8530 kg/m^3, cp = 380 J/kg•K, k = 110 W/m•K, and α = 33.9×10^–6 m^2/s) has a uniform initial temperature of 900°C, and the bottom surface of the plate is insulated. Required:
Determine the temperature at the center plane of the brass plate after 3 minutes of cooling.

809.98°C

Explanation:

STEP ONE: The first step to take in order to solve this particular Question or problem is to find or determine the Biot value.

Biot value = (heat transfer coefficient × length) ÷ thermal conductivity.

Biot value = (220 × 0.1)÷ 110 = 0.2.

Biot value = 0.2.

STEP TWO: Determine the Fourier number. Since the Biot value is greater than 0.1. Tis can be done by making use of the formula below;

Fourier number = thermal diffusivity × time ÷ (length)^2.

Fourier number = (3 × 60 × 33.9 × 10^-6)/( 0.1)^2 = 0.6102.

STEP THREE: This is the last step for the question, here we will be calculating the temperature of the center plane of the brass plate after 3 minutes.

Thus, the temperature of the center plane of the brass plane after 3 minutes = (1.00705) (0.89199) (900- 15) + 15.

= > the temperature of the center plane of the brass plane after 3 minutes = 809.98°C.
