Did not think the difference would be so small :) May I just ask where did you get this equation, since I was searching in a lot of different sources and have never seen so simple solution elsewhere? But thank you for the reply!

Well the die material has a bit higher specific heat, but I think the difference is not cruical for the approximate calculation. Correct me if I'm wrong, the result of this equation means, that becuse of cooling down the specimen from 800°C, the die roughly heats up by only 1.78°C in 1 experiment?

Hello. I will be doing some experiments with boron steel. The idea is to heat a steel specimen (200x20x1,5 mm dimensions) to 950°C and then quickly transfer it from the oven to the die at room temperature. When the specimen reaches the steel die it will supposedly be at around 800°C. At this...
