Humans are able to control their rates of heat production and heat loss to maintain a nearly constant core temperature of Tc = 37°C under a wide range of environmental conditions. This process is called thermoregulation. From the perspective of calculating heat transfer between a human body and its surroundings, we focus on a layer of skin and fat, with its outer surface exposed to the environment and its inner surface at a temperature slightly less than the core temperature, Ti = 35°C = 308 K. Consider a person with a skin/fat layer of thickness L = 2 mm and effective thermal conductivity k = 0.3 Wm ⋅ K. The person has a surface area A = 1.8 m2 and is dressed in a bathing suit. The emissivity of the skin is ε = 0.95.a). When the person is in still air at T∞ = 308 K, what is the skin surface temperature and rate of heat loss to the environment? Convection heat transfer to the air is characterized by a free convection coefficient of h = 2 W?2 ⋅ Kb). When the person is in water at T∞ =…

An exothermic chemical reaction takes place in a 20 cm thick slab and the energy generation rate per unit volume is 1 x 106 W/m³. The steady-state heat transfer rate into the slab at the left-hand side, i.e., at x = 0, is 280 W. Calculate the heat transfer rate to the surroundings from the right- hand side of the slab, i.e., at x = L. The surface area of each face is 40 cm². (1080 W)

We are testing a thin, transparent film heater that is bonded to the inside of an automobile window made of 3 mm thick glass. The window has a surface area of 0.6 m^2, and the air temperatures inside and outside the car are 20°C and 1°C, respectively. The convective heat transfer coefficients on the inside and outside of the window are 15 W/m^2-K and 25 W/m^2-K, respectively. The thermal conductivity of the glass is 0.5 W/m-K. 1) If the heater dissipates 200 W of heat, what are the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces of the window? 2) Now, suppose the heater needs to account for radiation exchange with the night sky, in addition to convection. The temperature of the surrounding sky is 253 K, and the emissivity of the external surface of the window is 0.6. Assuming the window is a gray surface, what is the power needed to maintain the inner surface temperature from part (1)? 3) Identify and explain two ways in which the power required for the heater in scenario (2) can be…
