  • Question on Radiation Heat Transfer?

    A college professor stands in a room. She can be modeled as follows: her body is a cylinder of height 1.5m, diameter of 0.5 m and her head a sphere with diameter of 0.25m Each surface has an emissivity of 0.8, what is the radiation heat transfer (W) from her for the case of room surfaces all held at 22 degrees C? Assume that the professor's surface temperature is 35 degrees C.

    Any help would be great. I have the View factor matrix but I believe some of my view factors are incorrect and it is affecting the end result. I am unsure of the answer but the numbers are too high to pass the engineering judgement.

  • Ticketed in the city by a chp officer?

    I was traveling down a street I normally do everyday when I was pulled over by a chp officer. The officer said she pulled me over due to me speeding. I was going the speed limit of the street at 40 mph where she was dead stopped in a driveway. She accelerated in a unsafe manner to catch up to me and tried to pace me for 20-50 feet before pulling me over. She stated that she paced me at 45 mph within that 20-50 feet window which gives her a less than a second to accurately pace me. She then tells me that the street is a 40 mph zone and switches to 25 down the street. Which is true but only during school hours and this was a weekend so it is a full 40 mph zone. I state that and she tells me that she did not pull me over to ticket me for speed. She then looks at my car in the reflection of the building and changes her story to say she pulled me over for no front plate. I stated that my new plate just arrrived the other day and was making a bracket to fit it. She then tells me to roll up my windows and gives me a tint violation. Is this legal to switch the probable cause to pull you over after they already have you pulled over and then make up a violation? My car is a show car so it is noticeable and I know there was profiling due to that and plus being a chp officer no where near the freeway ticketing someone who is not breaking the law needs citations that are unneeded. California is getting pretty sad....
