Annealing Steel balls that are 12 mm in diameter are annealed by heating them

Annealing Steel balls that are 12 mm in diameter are annealed by heating them to 1500 K, then slowly cooling them down to 400 K. They are cooled in air that is 325 K, with a convection coefficient of h = 20 [W/m 2 -K]. Estimate how much time the cooling process will take For steel, use properties of k = 40 [W/m-K], density = 7800 [kg/m 3], and c = 600 [J/kg-K] Calculate the Biot Number: Lc = r 0/3 for a sphere!

Estimate how much time the cooling process will take For steel, use properties of k = 40 [W/m-K], density = 7800 [kg/m 3], and c = 600 [J/kg-K] Note: We are ignoring radiation heat transfer. Early in the cooling process this might be significant. Since we ignored a loss term, the actual cooling time might be shorter than what we calculated.
