An experiment to determine the convection coefficient associated with airflow over the surface of a thick stainless

Question:

An experiment to determine the convection coefficient associated with airflow over the surface of a thick stainless steel casting involves insertion of thermocouples in the casting at distances of 10 and 20 mm from the surface along a hypothetical line normal to the surface. The steel has a thermal conductivity of 15 W/m ∙ K. If the thermocouples measure temperatures of 50 and 40°C in the steel when the air temperature is 100°C, what is the convection coefficient?
