Slap all that into Matlab and iterate about 100 times and you'll find the time. I don't want to give better instructions because this was a like a final project I did in heat and mass trasnfer and it took about 2 weeks because we had no idea how to do it. Something about the A x b matrix. As if that helps. Good luck! The MUCH easier way is to assume the keg cools evenly (all the fluid gains heat evenly). I forget what this is called, not steady state, something else with an s. Anyways, then its just: FLUID (T,h) ---- KEGWALL (r) ---- OUTSIDE (T,h) which should be pretty easy to solve but I forget how. haha useless as ever. | ||

Unless ofcourse you haven't botherd with PDEs yet, in which case it's probably a gay ass Matlab model. Fuck I hated school. | ||

Only our beer is much better as well - hence you should alter your dream. | ||

What I'd recommend is putting a deposit on a bin or using a trash can and buying about 6 bags of ice with your keg. Start with 3 on the sides and 1 on top and dump two more in later in the evening. That'll keep it plenty cold for the evening. If you don't think you can drink a keg in one night, I'd recommend other alternatives since you'll just be wasting beer. A pony keg (1/4 barrel) holds about 90 beers and a 1/2 barrel is about 180. If you don't see yourself drinking either, buy cases. | ||

The tootsie pop is much more difficult/complicated I think. When I first started reading the thread things like the diffusion equation started popping into my head, and I was starting to decide whether or not to suggest doing a trial run with Newton's Law of Cooling beforehand, before I realized, IT'S A F****** KEG. and lost interest. | ||
