4.15 During a rotational moulding operation an aluminium mould with a uniform thickness of 3 mm is put into an oven at 300 °C. If the initial temperature of the mould is 23 °C, estimate the time taken for it to reach 250 °C. The natural convection heat transfer coefficient is 28.4 J/m²s K and the thermal diffusivity and conductivity of aluminium may be taken as 8.6 x 10-5 m²/s and 230.1 J/ms K respectively.

4.15 During a rotational moulding operation
an aluminium mould with a uniform
thickness of 3 mm is put into an oven at
300 °C. If the initial temperature of the
mould is 23 °C, estimate the time taken
for it to reach 250 °C. The natural
convection heat transfer coefficient is
28.4 J/m²s K and the thermal diffusivity
and conductivity of aluminium may be
taken as 8.6 x 10-5 m²/s and 230.1 J/ms
K respectively.
