The Diamond Ring Solution. The processing chip on the computer that controls the navigation equipment on your spacecraft is
overheating. Unless you fix the problem, the chip will be damaged and the navigation system will shut down. You open the panel and
find that the small copper disk that was supposed to bridge the gap between the smooth top of the chip and the cooling plate is
missing, leaving a 2.0 mm gap between them. In this configuration, the heat cannot escape the chip at the required rate. You notice by
the thin smudge of thermal grease (a highly thermally conductive material used to promote good thermal contact between surfaces)
that the missing copper disk was 2.0 mm thick and had a diameter of 1.0 cm. You know that the chip is designed to run below 70 °C, and
the copper cooling plate is held at a constant 5.0 °C.
(a) What was the rate of heat flow from the chip to the copper plate when the original copper disk was in place and the chip was at its
maximum operating…
Question(2): The ceiling outer surface temperature of an oven is 60°C. If the oven is in an
environment of 20 °C and the ceiling is 1 m wide and 2 m long. find the heat loss from the
