Question: A solid steel sphere (AISI 1010), 300 mm in diameter, is coated with a dielectric material layer of thickness 2 mm and thermal conductivity 0.04

A solid steel sphere (AISI 1010), 300 mm in diameter, is coated with a dielectric material layer of thickness 2 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 = 3300 W/m2 ∙ K. Estimate the time required for the coated sphere temperature to reach 140°C.
