Mould wall temperature
We define the temperature difference as:
ΔT = TW − T
so that
![]()
rearranging and integrating gives:
![]()
![]()
where c is a constant.
Applying the boundary condition that T = TP when t = 0, we get:
![]()
so that the time taken for the liquid to cool to a given temperature is given by:
