Example 4.13. A thermocouple junction is in the form of 8 mm diameter sphere. Properties of
material are:
40 W/M2°C.
= 8000 kg/m³; k = 40 W/m°C and h
This junction is initially at 40°C and inserted in a stream of hot air at 300°C. Find:
%3D
420 J/kg°C; p
C =
(i) Time constant of the thermocouple;
(ii) The thermocouple is taken out from the hot air after 10 seconds and kept in still air at
30°C. Assuming the heat transfer coefficient in air 10 W/M²°C, find the temperature attained
by the junction 20 seconds after removing from hot air.
