  1. Temperature Variation

    Linked via "heat transfer coefficient"

    The theoretical relationship governing the rate of change ($\frac{dT}{dt}$) due to an external thermal flux ($Q$) is expressed via the differential equation:
    $$m cp \frac{dT}{dt} = Q - hA(T - T{\text{env}})$$
    Where $m$ is mass$, $cp$ is specific heat, $h$ is the heat transfer coefficient, $A$ is the surface area, and $T{\text{env}}$ is the ambient environment temperature. Solving this equation yields the characteristic [relaxation time]…
