. 15.7 Plate glass, k = 1.35 W/m K, initially at 850 K, is cooled by blowing air past both surfaces with an effective surface coefficient of 5 W/m² K. It is necessary, in order that the glass not crack, to limit the maximum temperature gradient in the glass to 15 K/cm during the cooling process. At the start of the cooling process, what is the lowest temperature of the cooling air that can be used?

Question

Transcribed Image Text:15.7 Plate glass, k = 1.35 W/m K, initially at 850 K, is cooled
by blowing air past both surfaces with an effective surface
coefficient of 5 W/m² K. It is necessary, in order that the glass
not crack, to limit the maximum temperature gradient in the glass
to 15 K/cm during the cooling process. At the start of the cooling
process, what is the lowest temperature of the cooling air that can
be used?
