You are asked to estimate the maximum human body temperature if the metabolic
heat produced in your body could escape only by tissue conduction and later on the surface by
convection. Simplify the human body as a cylinder of L=1.8 m in height and ro= 0.15 m in
radius. Further, simplify the heat transfer process inside the human body as a 1-D situation when
the temperature only depends on the radial coordinater from the centerline. The governing
