Geologists measure conductive heat flow out of the earth by drilling holes (a few hundred meters deep) and measuring the temperature as a function of depth. Suppose that in a certain location the temperature increases by 20°C per kilometer of depth and the thermal conductivity of the rock is 2.5 W/m·K. What is the rate of heat conduction per square meter in this location? Assuming that this value is typical of other locations over all of earth's surface, at approximately what rate is the earth losing heat via conduction? (The radius of the earth is 6400 km.)
In an electrically heated home, the temperature of the ground in contact with a concrete basement wall is 10.3 oC. The temperature at the inside surface of the wall is 18.1 oC. The wall is 0.14 m thick and has an area of 6.5 m2. Assume that one kilowatt hour of electrical energy costs $0.10. How many hours are required for one dollar's worth of energy to be conducted through the wall?
Thermal energy is being transferred through a 0.8 mm layer of human skin at a rate of 1.1 x 104 W/m2. The room temperature is 27 °C.To reduce heat flux, the skin is wrapped with a clothing material. What should be the thickness of the clothing material covering the surface of this skin tissue to reduce the heat flux to half of its original value? What is the temperature at the skin-clothing material interface?
