We often think of pollution in terms of smog or trash in the
ocean. Give an example of thermal pollution, discuss its impact
and possible mitigation.
During hot summer weather, many people put “koozies” around their beverages to keep the drinks cold. In addition to preventing a warm hand from heating the container through conduction, what other mechanisms slow the process of warming beverages?
Еxample:-
In a warm room, a naked resting person has a skin temperature of 33°C
If the room temperature is 29°C and the body surface area is 1.5m2
