The mathematical simulation of the time and temperature during the quenching of hot metal into a liquid depends on the accuracy of data such as the heat-transfer coefficient h. Heat transfer during quenching into liquid is complicated when the quench medium forms a gas when heated to high temperatures. Here a probe designed to measure heat transfer coefficients is quenched into water while its temperature history is recorded.
