The handle of a ladle used for pouring molten lead is 30-cm-long. Originally the handle was made of 1.9 x 1.25 cm mild steel bar stock. To reduce the grip temperature, it is proposed to form the handle of tubing 0.15-cm-thick to the same rectangular shape. If the average heat transfer coefficient over the handle surface is 14 W/(m2 K), estimate the reduction of the temperature at the grip in air at 21°C.

GIVEN

FIND
The reduction of the temperature at the grip
ASSUMPTIONS
The lead is at the melting temperature
The handle is made of 1% carbon steel
The ladle is normally in steady state during use
The variation of the thermal conductivity is negligible
One dimensional conduction
Heat transfer from the end of the handle can be neglected
