Consider the engine block of a car made of cast (k =52W/m  °C  and α=1.7×10-5 m2/s) The engine can be considered to be a rectangular block whose sides are 80 cm, 40 cm, and 40 cm. The engine is at a temperature of 150°C when it is turned off. The engine is then exposed to atmospheric air at 17°C with a heat transfer coefficient of 6 W/m2 · °C. Determine (a) the center temperature of the top surface whose sides are 80 cm and 40 cm and (b) the corner temperature after 45 min of cooling.
