Quenching of a probe designed for heat transfer measurements

The mathematical simulation of the time and temperature during the quenching of hot metal into a liquid depends on the accuracy of data such as the heat-transfer coefficient h. Heat transfer during quenching into liquid is complicated when the quench medium forms a gas when heated to high temperatures.

Here a probe designed to measure heat transfer coefficients is quenched into water while its temperature history is recorded. Movie donated by Dr Hala Salman Hasan of the Bhagdad University of Science and Technology
