A hot dog with a diameter of roughly 2 cm and initial
temperature 20°C is dropped into pool of 95°C water. The heat
transfer coefficient may be assumed to be constant and equal to 200
W/m2⋅K. The meat thermal conductivity and thermal
diffusivity are approximately 0.4 W/m⋅K and 0.0014
cm2/s.
a. How long do we have to wait until the center of the hot dog
warms up to 65°C
b. Estimate the hot dog surface temperature at the time calculated

A large sheet of material 40 mm thick contains dissolved hydrogen (H2) having a uniform concentration of 3 kmol/m3. The sheet is exposed to a fluid stream that causes the concentration of the dissolved hydrogen to be suddenly reduced to zero at both surfaces. This surface condition is maintained constant thereafter. If the mass diffusivity of hydrogen is 9 × 10-7 m2/s, how much time is required to bring the density of dissolved hydrogen to a value of 1.2 kg/m3 at the center of the sheet?

Steel balls 12 mm in diameter are annealed by heating to
1150 K and then slowly cooling to 400 K in an air
environment for which T∞ = 325 K and h = 20
W/m2⋅K.
Assuming the properties of the steel to be k = 40 W/m⋅K, =
7800 kg/m3 and Cp = 600 J/kg⋅K, estimate the
time required
for the cooling process.
