Heat sterilization of lumber, timbers, and pallets is used to kill insects to prevent their transfer between countries in international trade. This is analogous to food sterilization by heat. A typical requirement here is that the slowest heating point of any woodconfiguration be held at 56 °C for 30 minutes. Consider hot air heating of wooden boards that maintains their surface temperature at 70 °C. The boards are stacked outside and in the winter time they can be considered to be at 0 °Cwhen theyare brought in for heating. The thermal diffusivity of the wood is 9*10-8m2/s.
a.Calculate the time from the start of heating for a 2.5 cm thick board to reach a sterilization temperature of 56 °C at its slowest heating point
.b.Calculate the heating time when four such boards are stacked together.
c.Calculate the ratio of the two heating times (for a single board versus when they are stacked), and explain the ratio.

An underwater sonar that maps the ocean bathymetry is encapsulated in a sphere with a diameter of 85 mm. During operation, the sonar generates heat at a rate of 300W. What is the sonar surface temperature when it’s located in a water column where the temperature is 15o C and the water current is 1 m/sec?
The sonar was pulled out of the water without turning it off, thus, it was still working. The air temperature was 15o C and the air speed was 3 m/sec. What was the sonar surface temperature? Was there any reason for concern?
