Chapter 3, Problem 3.34P
Ring-porous woods, such as oak, are characterized by grains. dark grains consist of very low-density material that forms early in the springtime. The surrounding lighter-colored wood is composed of high-density material that forms slowly throughout most of the growing season.
Assuming the low-density material is highly porous and the oak is dry, determine the fraction of the oak cross-section that appears as being grained. Hint: Assume the thermal conductivity parallel to the grains is the same as the radial conductivity of Table A.3.

PROCEDURE: for (HEAT TRANSFER THROUGH COMPOSITE WALLS)
Refer to Table 3.2 in the lecture and take the data for air, water (steam), and four other gases listed in the table. Plot the data in a graph with the thermal conductivity on the vertical axis and the temperature range from 200 K to 600 K on the horizontal axis. Use colors or different dashed lines to make the graph presentable and understandable. The graph should look like the graph in Figure 3.1 in the lecture. Provide a short explanation of the graph in three to five sentences.

- Nanotechnology, the field of building ultrasmall structures one atom at a time, has progressed in recent years. One potential application of nanotechnology is the construction of artificial cells. The simplest cells would probably mimic red blood cells, the body’s oxygen transporters. Nanocontainers, perhaps constructed of carbon, could be pumped full of oxygen and injected into a person’s bloodstream. If the person needed additional oxygen—due to a heart attack or for the purpose of space travel, for example—these containers could slowly release oxygen into the blood, allowing tissues that would otherwise die to remain alive. Suppose that the nanocontainers were cubic and had an edge length of 25 nanometers. Suppose that each nanocontainer could contain pure oxygen pressurized to a density of 85 g/L. How many grams of oxygen could be contained by each nanocontainer?arrow_forwardNanotechnology, the field of building ultrasmall structures one atom at a time, has progressed in recent years.

This study introduces innovative fin structures comprising longitudinal fins and cylindrical rings to enhance heat transfer. Comparative experiments are initially designed to assess the thermal performance of various Battery Thermal Management Systems (BTMS). Results indicate that the PCM-Fin system outperforms both the pure battery system and the PCM system. Numerical simulations, validated with experimental data, uncover the underlying mechanisms.
