A common method to measure thermal conductivity of a biomaterial is to insert a long metallic probe axially into the center of a

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is approximately 1.571 watts per meter-Celsius.

Explanation:

Let suppose that thermal conduction is uniform and one-dimensional, the conduction heat transfer ( $\dot Q$ ), measured in watts, in the hollow cylinder is:

$\dot Q = \frac{2\cdot k\cdot L}{\ln \left(\frac{D_{o}}{D_{i}} \right)}\cdot (T_{i}-T_{o})$

Where:

$k$ - Thermal conductivity, measured in watts per meter-Celsius.

$L$ - Length of the cylinder, measured in meters.

$D_{i}$ - Inner diameter, measured in meters.

$D_{o}$ - Outer diameter, measured in meters.

$T_{i}$ - Temperature at inner surface, measured in Celsius.

$T_{o}$ - Temperature at outer surface, measured in Celsius.

Now we clear the thermal conductivity in the equation:

$k = \frac{\dot Q}{2\cdot L\cdot (T_{i}-T_{o})}\cdot \ln\left(\frac{D_{o}}{D_{i}} \right)$

If we know that $\dot Q = 40.8\,W$ , $L = 0.6\,m$ , $T_{i} = 50\,^{\circ}C$ , $T_{o} = 20\,^{\circ}C$ , $D_{i} = 0.01\,m$ and $D_{o} = 0.04\,m$ , the thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is:

$k = \left[\frac{40.8\,W}{2\cdot (0.6\,m)\cdot (50\,^{\circ}C-20\,^{\circ}C)}\right]\cdot \ln \left(\frac{0.04\,m}{0.01\,m} \right)$

$k \approx 1.571\,\frac{W}{m\cdot ^{\circ}C}$

The thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is approximately 1.571 watts per meter-Celsius.

If an ideal gas does not exist then why laws were stated?

mihalych1998 [28]

That is because it is impossible to create a law for the behavior of every single different gas, so creating laws for an ideal gas helps us understand the basic nature of gasses which might or might not differ slightly or a lot. By understanding how an ideal gas works, we can understand how a normal gas works.
