Stainless steel (AISI 304) ball bearings, which have been uniformly heated to 850°C, are hardened by quenching them in an oil bath
that is maintained at 40°C. The ball diameter is 12.5 mm, and the convection coefficient associated with the oil bath is 1000 W/m².K.
(a) If quenching is to occur until the surface temperature of the balls reaches 100°C, how long, in s, must the balls be kept in the oil?
What is the center temperature, in °C, at the conclusion of the cooling period?
(b) If 10,000 balls are to be quenched per hour, what is the rate at which energy must be removed, in kW, by the oil bath cooling system
in order to maintain its temperature at 40°C?

A composite plane wall consisting of materials, 1.5-in steel (k = 312 BTU-in/HR.ft2.0F) and 2-in aluminum (k = 1400 BTU-in/HR.ft2.0F), separates a hot gas at Ti = 2000F, hi = 2 BTU/HR.ft2.0F, from cold gas at To = 80 deg F, ho = 5. If the hot fluid is on the aluminum side, find: a) Transmittance, U; b) The heat through 100 sq. ft of the surface under steady state condition and c) The interface temperature at the junction of the metals.
A steel sphere (AISI 1010), 100 mm in diameter, is coated with a dielectric material layer of thickness 1.75 mm and thermal
conductivity 0.04 W/m.K. The coated sphere is initially at a uniform temperature of 500°C and is suddenly quenched in a large oil bath
for which T = 100°C and h = 3000 W/m².K. Estimate the time, in h, required for the coated sphere temperature to reach 150°C.
Hint: Neglect the effect of energy storage in the dielectric material, since its thermal capacitance (pc)is small compared to that of the
steel sphere.
