Hi,
I am designing a system to cool aluminium through contact cooling. I have a steel die with
9x 20mm diameter cooling chambers. Water is pumped through the chambers which cools the steel die and hopefully the aluminium sitting on top of it.
I am looking to find the temperature of the water needed to cool the steel at a rate of 100C / s. Obviously this is much more complicated than a standard convection and conduction equations. I was just looking for some advice on where to start.
Thanks,
