As part of a heat treatment process, cylindrical, 304 stainless steel rods of 100-mm diameter are cooled from an initial temperature of 500 C by suspending them in an oil bath at 30 C. If a convection coefficient of 500 W/m2 K is maintained by circulation of the oil, how long does it take for the centerline of a rod to reach a temperature of 50 C, at which point it is withdrawn from the bath

Explanation:

Given that:

diameter = 100 mm

initial temperature = 500 ° C

Conventional coefficient = 500 W/m^2 K

length  = 1 m

We obtain the following data from the tables A-1;

For the stainless steel of the rod

Here, we can't apply the lumped capacitance method, since Bi > 0.1

However, on a single rod, the energy extracted is:

Hence, for centerline temperature at 50 °C;

The surface temperature is:
