Indirect Cooling With Liquid Nitrogen. You are designing a system to cool an insulated silver plate of dimensions 2.00 cm × 2.00 cm x 0.40 cm. One end of a thermally insulated copper wire (diameter D = 2.70 mm and length L = 12.0 cm) is dipped into a vat of liquid
nitrogen (T = 77.2 K), and the other end is attached to the bottom of the silver plate.
(a) If the silver plate starts at room temperature (73.0°F), what is the initial rate of heat flow between the plate and the liquid nitrogen
reservoir?
(b) Assuming the rate of heat flow calculated in part (a), estimate the temperature of the silver plate after 30.0 seconds.

A food product wants to be produced in a small round shape (pellet) by freezing it in a water blast freezer freezer. Air freezer operates at -25°C. The initial product temperature is 25°C. The pellet has a diameter of 1.2 cm, and a density of 980 kg/m³. The initial freezing temperature is -2.5°C. The latent heat of freezing of the product is 280 kJ/kg. The thermal conductivity of the frozen product is 1.9 W/(m °C). The convective heat transfer coefficient is 40 W/(m² K). Calculate the freeze time.
