Heat Transfer
5.9 The heat transfer coefficient for hydrogen flowing over a sphere is to be determined by observing the tem-perature-time history of a sphere fabricated from pure copper. The sphere, which is 20 mm in diameter, is at 75C before it is inserted into the gas stream having a temperature of 27C. A thermocouple on the outer surface of the sphere indicates 55C97s after the sphere is inserted into the hydrogen. Assume and then justify that the sphere behaves as a spacewise isothermal object and calculate the heat transfer coefficient.
Use density of 8953kgm3 and specific heat of 385Jkg K
