    If they cancel out, the system would be in balance and not get hotter. So some thing does not add up. What heat transfer coefficient did you use and which other numbers etc.?

      No, the heat propagation through the copper block (meaning the contact surface gets to 100 degrees before the top of the block) balances out that the copper block loses heat to the surrounding area via it’s side walls.
