A sufficient amount of pure copper is(4 to be heated for casting a large plate in an open mold. The plate has dimensions: length = 20 in, width=10 in, and thickness =3 in. Compute the amount of heat that must be added to the metal to heat it to a temperature of 21500F for pouring. Assume that the amount of metal heated will be 10% more than what is needed to fill the mold cavity. Properties of the metal are: density=0.324 Ibm/in3, melting point = 19810F, specific heat of the metal=0.093Btu/lbm-F in the solid state and 0.090 Btu/lbm-F in the liquid .state, and heat of fusion = 80 Btu/lbm
