    The document describes a copper-constantan thermocouple bead with specific properties that is placed in a fluid at 170°F from an initial room temperature of 72°F. A graph shows the experimental temperature response of the thermocouple over time as it heats up. Students are tasked with using the provided information to determine the overall convective heat transfer coefficient between the thermocouple bead and surrounding fluid.
