3) A mild steel sphere of 15 mm diameter is planned to be cooled by an air

flow at 20o C. The convective heat transfer co-efficient is 110 W/m2K.
Calculate the following
a) Time required to cool the sphere from 700oC to 150o C
b) Instantaneous heat transfer rate at 150o C
c) Total energy transferred up to 150o C
Take for mild steel ρ = 7850 kg /m3, Cp = 474 J/kg K, α = 0.044 m2/h,
k = 43 W/mK
