A small aluminum sphere of diameter D, initially at a uniform temperature To, is immersed in a liquid whose temperature, T?, varies sinusoidally according to

T? – Tm = A sin (? t) where: Tm = time-averaged temperature of the liquid A = amplitude of the temperature fluctuation ? = frequency of the fluctuations
If the heat transfer coefficient between the fluid in the sphere, ah , is constant and the system may be treated as ‘lumped capacity,’ derive an expression for the sphere temperature as a function of time.
