Question
A steel sphere of diameter d and thermal conductivity k is being cooled in a
flowing stream of air of bulk temperature T. The temperature distribution in the ball at a
particular instant can be approximated as T- a + br + crª, where a, b and c are functions of time,
and I is in K. What is the surface heat transfer coefficient? What is the unit of b?
