[@JohnSmiffer]

@@daan-6734 I don't think you are getting that heat out of a few solar panels on the roof haha.

[@koonanthony]

I think also heat generated from deforming the metal with such force helps it to stay hot.

[@cellularmitosis2]

“Surface area to volume ratio” is the phenomenon at play here. As objects get bigger, their volume grows faster than their surface area. This is why a large chuck of stew can stay so hot for so long, there’s just a lot of hot steel and not much surface area for the heat to escape. This is also why the most efficient engines in the world are also the largest. As a cylinder gets bigger, you get a lot more volume (power) but not a lot more surface area (lost efficiency by losing heat to the water jacket)

[@cellularmitosis2]

Conversely, this is what explains the shape of heat sinks. All those fins create a huge surface area for a tiny amount of volume. So they are optimized to shed heat as fast as possible. The opposite of a heat sink would be a sphere.

[@raydunakin]

[@ericmichels9898]

I have some questions for an expert: What are these crusts that fall off from the hot iron piece when they are put under pressure? Since these crusts are clearly a loss of the production, do they fall into account during the process? And would these fall off endlessly if the pressing process would go on for too long?

[@80_grit46]

That's what blacksmiths call "scale". Basically, it's rust. The loss of material is very, very minimal.

[@elektro3000]

The high temperature causes oxygen in the air to join with the steel surface much faster than it would rust the steel at normal temperature. So as the steel cools, the scale forms more slowly. Yes, the loss of scale is small but an expected part of the process. Remember that most forms of iron oxide are many times less dense (take up more space per gram) than iron itself. Usually at least one surface is machined to an exact dimension after forging, sometimes the entire surface of the part is machined, mostly depending on which surfaces touch other parts (but also for cosmetic reasons if a customer can see the surface). So the requirement is to leave enough metal to cut the rough "as-forged" surface away, not to forge it to the exact final dimension ("net-shape").
