Hello all, thanks for reading.
I am trying to figure out how much water (gallons) would be needed to cool 1 ton of molten Carbon Steel from 2200F to 212F. The specific heat of Carbon Steel is 0.49 Kj/kg.C
I am not sure where to start. I tried used Newtons Law of Cooling but I don't think this is the place to start.
After some reading, I multiplied the mass x specific heat × ΔTemp. I kind of understand that from here I need to do somthing with steam/water enthalpy. I am far removed from Physics class but am trying to figure this out for my internship. Any help whatsoever would be very appreciated. Thanks for you time and have a great day all.
