The heat flux through a 1-mm thick layer of skin is 1.05 x 104 W/m2. The temperature at the inside surface is 37°C and the tempe

rature at the outside surface is 30°C.a. What is the thermal conductivity of the skin?b. A layer of clothing material with half the thermal conductivity of skin and twice the thickness of skin is placed on the outside surface of the skin. If the outside surface of the clothing is maintained at 30°C, what is the new heat flux from the skin and what is the temperature at the skin-insulation interface?

Answer:

a) Thermal conductivity of skin: k_{skin}=1.5W/mK

b) Temperature of interface: T_{interface}=35.6\°C

Heat flux through skin: \frac{Q}{A}=2100W/m^2

Explanation:

a)

k=\frac{QL}{A(T_{2}-T_{1})}

Where: k is thermal conductivity of a material, \frac{Q}{A} is heat flux through a material, L is the thickness of the material, T_{1} is the temperature on the first side and T_{2} is the temperature on the second side

k_{skin}=\frac{QL}{A(T_{2}-T_{1})}

k_{skin}=\frac{Q}{A}*\frac{L}{(T_{2}-T_{1})}

k_{skin}=1.05*10^{4}*\frac{1*10^{-3}}{(37-30)}

k_{skin}=1.5W/mK

b)

k_{insulation}=\frac{k_{skin}}{2}

k_{insulation}=\frac{1.5}{2}

k_{insulation}=0.75W/mK

The heat flux between both surfaces is constant, assuming the temperature is maintained at each surface.

\frac{Q}{A}=\frac{k(T_{2}-T_{1})}{L}

\frac{k_{skin}(T_{skin}-T_{interface})}{L_{skin}}=\frac{k_{insulation}(T_{interface}-T_{insulation})}{L_{insulation}}

\frac{1.5*(37-T_{interface})}{0.001}=\frac{0.75*(T_{interface}-30)}{0.002}

55500-1500T_{interface}=375T_{interface}-11250

1875T_{interface}=66750

T_{interface}=35.6\°C

\frac{Q}{A}=\frac{k_{skin}(T_{skin}-T_{interface})}{L_{skin}}

\frac{Q}{A}=\frac{1.5*(37-35.6)}{0.001}

\frac{Q}{A}=2100W/m^2

Write short notes on: (any four) a) Suspended ground floor b) Soil exploration c) Baulking of sand d) Bearing capacity of soil e
vredina [299]

Answer:

a) A suspended floor is a ground floor with a void underneath the structure. The floor can be formed in various ways, using timber joists, precast concrete panels, block and beam system or cast in-situ with reinforced concrete. However, the floor structure is supported by external and internal walls.

b) Soil exploration consists of determining the profile of the natural soil deposits at the site, taking the soil samples and determining the engineering properties of soils using laboratory tests as well as in-situ testing methods

c) Bulking in sand Occurs When dry sand interacts with the atmospheric moisture. Presence of moisture content forms a thin layer around sand particles. This layer generates the force which makes particles to move aside to each other. This results in the increase of the volume of sand.

d) In a nutshell, bearing capacity is the capacity of soil to support the loads that are applied to the ground above. It depends primarily on the type of soil, its shear strength and its density. It also depends on the depth of embedment of the load – the deeper it is founded, the greater the bearing capacity.

Which of the following sentences uses the active voice
MrRa [10]

Answer: Last week, Nate and I counted all the inventory.

Explanation: all other choices are passive voices

this sentence follows a clear subject + verb + object construct that's why it is an active voice. In fact, sentences constructed in the active voice add impact to your writing. but on the other hand With passive voice, the subject is acted upon by the verb.
