Body temperature of concrete block

[ZDR1985]

Hi guys,

Is there a way I could calculate or estimate a surface temperature of a concrete block exposed to an ambient temperature of 55C?

I estimate that the temperature of the concrete block to be around 55 dC if it has exposed to that temperature for a long time.

Is there anything else you want considered? Are you talking about something buried in dirt with a temperature of 20C on all faces but the top?

If you're talking about a block exposed on all sides to a steady temperature of 55C, then chicopee nailed it; after a sufficient time it will also be at 55C.

Did you actually want surface temperature, as stated in your posting, or body temperature, as stated in the title.

The body temperature sir assuming it is exposed to the sun. Thanks!

You aren't even close to having provided a sufficiently complete set of information, like area, thickness, surrounding material, air speed, etc.
