Question
A shaft of 0.06-m diameter is heat treated in a gas-fired furnace whose gases is at
1200 K and provide a convection coefficient of 125 W/m² K. If the shaft enters the
furnace at 300 K and stays in the furnace. (1) What is the centerline temperature (in
K) of the shaft after 900 seconds? (2) What is the value of the dimensionless Fourier
number? The shaft material has a density of 7000 kg/m², thermal conductivity of 50
W/m.K, and specific heat capacity 500 J/kg.K. Please show your work and
assumptions.
