two large aluminum plates (k =240W/m.K) each 1cm thick with 10micrometer surface roughness are placed in contact under a pressure of 1bar in air (k=0.026W/m.K). The temperature at the inside and outside surfaces is 400 degrees Celsius and 150degrees Celsius. Calculate the heat Flux and the temperature drop due to contact resistance.

In a heat treatment of a specific excavator bucket tooth of 15kg mass, the tooth is heated to 8850C and to achieve the required level of physical properties it needs to be cooled to the final temperature in a cooling tank using brine as the cooling medium. Determine the final temperature if the minimum required mass of brine initially at 200C temperature is 260 kg, using specific heat values cb= 3.71 J/g·K and cs=0.47 J/g·K for brine and steel respectively. Assume no heat losses to the environment.

The Acme Widget Company has generally followed a relative conservative business model and has done well. Their sales have been relatively stable over the past decade and represent about 40% of the powered widget market, with widgets operating on conventional fossil fuels – gasoline, diesel, and propane. One of the founders of the company recently passed on his voting stock to his son, who advocates moving the company in a new direction. He wants the company to pursue a new business opportunity with the design and manufacture of widgets that employ alternative energy sources. You have been hired as a consulting engineer by the company to help them decide if they should go forward. While you know next to nothing about powered widgets, they believe you can help them perform an objective RWW analysis.  

Describe in some detail how you would go about leading this analysis: what questions would you have for the company personnel, what other sources of data might you want to use and what information would you attempt to gather from these sources? Incorporate as many of the tools we have explored this semester as you feel apply. For example: Is the Design for X Spiderweb graphic relevant for this analysis? What role might forecasting techniques play? How important is it to be able to quantify various factors at each stage of the analysis?
