Chapter 4, Problem 30P
A person is found dead at 5 p.m. in a room whose temperature is 20°C. The temperature of the body is measured to be 25°C when found, and the heat transfer coefficient is estimated to be 8 W/m2 K. Modeling the body as a 30-cm-diameter, 1 .70-m-long cylinder and using the lumped system analysis as a rough approximation, estimate the time of death of that person.

A person is found dead at 5 PM in a room whose temperature is 20 °C. The
temperature of the body is measured to be 25 °C when found, and the heat transfer
coefficient is estimated to be h 8 W/m2 °C. Modeling the body as a 30-cm-diameter,
1.70-m-long cylinder, estimate the time of death of that person. The body can be
modeled as a 30 cm diameter, 1.70-m-long cylinder. The thermal properties and body
temperature of 37 °C.
let The average human body is 72 percent water by mass, and thus
we can assume the body to have the properties of water at the average temperature
of (37 + 25)/2 = 31 °C; k = 0.617 W/m · °C, p= 996 kg/m³, and Cp=4178 J/kg · °C
Air enters a 7-cm-diameter and 5-m-long tube at 65°C and leaves at 15°C. The
tube is observed to be nearly isothermal at 5°C. If the average convection heat
transfer coefficient is 20 W/m2.°C, determine the rate of heat transfer from the
air. (Solve using EES, and round the answer to 2 decimal places.)
The rate of heat transfer from the air is
491 W.
