In a quenching process, a copper plate of 3 mm thick is heated up to 350°C and then suddenly, it is dropped into a water bath at 25°C. (a) Calculate the time required for the plate to reach the temperature of 50°C. The heat transfer coefficient on the surface of the plate is 28 W/m2 -K. The plate dimensions may be taken as length 40 cm and width 30 cm. (b) Also calculate the time required for infinite long plate to cool to 50°C. Other parameters remain same. (c) Calculate the heat transfer rate loss of the plate when it is at 50°C. Take the properties of copper as: CP = 380 J/kg-K, ρ = 8800 kg/m3 , k = 385 W/m-K

In a quenching process, a copper plate of 3 mm thick is heated up to 350°C and then suddenly, it is dropped into a water bath at 25°C.

(a) Calculate the time required for the plate to reach the
temperature of 50°C. The heat transfer coefficient on the surface of the plate is 28 W/m2 -K. The plate dimensions may be taken as length 40 cm and width 30 cm.

(b) Also calculate the time required for infinite long plate to cool to 50°C. Other parameters remain same.

(c) Calculate the heat transfer rate loss of the plate when it is at 50°C. Take the properties of copper as: CP = 380 J/kg-K, ρ = 8800 kg/m3 , k = 385 W/m-K
