The thermal conductivities of human tissues vary greatly. “Fat” and “skin” have conductivities of approximately 0.200 W /m 0K and 0.0200 W /m 0K, respectively, while other “tissues” inside the body have conductivities of approximately 0.500 W /m 0 Assume that between the core region of the body and the skin surface lies a “skin” layer of 1.00mm, a “fat” layer of 0.500 cm., and 3.20 cm. layer of other “tissues”. A)Find the R-factor for each of these three layers, and the R-factor for all layers taken together
An industrial cold room has four 200 mm thick walls made of concrete. The walls are insulated on the outside with a layer of foam 60 mm thick. Cladding with a thickness of 15 mm protects the foam on the outside from the elements. The composite wall surface temperatures are –3 °C on the inside and 18 °C on the outside of the room respectively. The thermal conductivities of concrete, foam and cladding are 0.75, 0.35 and 0.5 W/m K respectively. Assuming perfect thermal contact between the layers of the composite walls, draw the typical temperature distribution across the layers and determine the heat energy gained per hour through all 4 walls of the room with a total surface area of 20 m2. What does this heat energy represent in terms of the refrigeration system of the cold room?
