In the vulcanization of tires, the carcass is placed into a jig and steam at 149°C is admitted suddenly to both sides. If the tire thickness is 2.5 cm, the initial temperature is 21°C, the heat transfer coefficient between the tire and the steam is 150 W/(m2 K), and the specific heat of the rubber is 1650 J/(kg K), estimate the time required for the center of the rubber to reach 132°C
