Problem Statement
Sous Vide is a technique of slow cooking where meat or vegetables are sealed in a thin plastic bag and dunked in a heated water bath for long periods of time. Consider this method for slow cooking a 20 cm long and 8 cm wide rectangular salmon fillet that is 1 cm thick. The fillet is completely immersed in the water bath. The initial temperature of the fillet is Ti=20C. The water bath is at a temperature Tint=80C. The water bath is circulated by means of a pump, creating a convective heat transfer coefficient of h=400Wm2-K.
Ignore the surface area of the faces along the thickness of the fillet in relation to the 20cm8cm top and bottom faces of salmon.
Determine the time it takes for the center of salmon to reach a temperature of 79C.
