14.5 Exercise 22

For the human body, what is the rate of heat transfer by conduction through the body’s tissue with the following conditions: the tissue thickness is 3.00 cm, the change in temperature is $2 . \text{00}º \text{C}$, and the skin area is $1 . \text{50} \textrm{ }\text{m}^{2}$. How does this compare with the average heat transfer rate to the body resulting from an energy intake of about 2400 kcal per day? (No exercise is included.)
