Summary

The method uses the first term in the series analytical solution for convective cooling of a sphere in conjunction with two geometric parameters determined by empirical algebraic equations. Experimental measurements with seven irregular geometric chapes (38 runs) and finite element numerical method predictions were used to test the methodology for predicting chilling rates at the thermal centre position. Observed differences were largely explainable by data uncertainties.
