Objective: to estimate the temperature of hot water when water falls to the base of shower stall. Evaluation criteria Observation (50%): describe how water comes out of showerhead and falls to the base of shower stall. Modeling (50%): Using heat transfer knowledge (conduction, radiation, and convection), setup a mathematical model to estimate the temperature of hot water after hot water leaves shower head. You can make a number of assumptions, including the initial temperature of hot water, flow rate of water (i.e., 2 gallon per min), the height of showerhead (i.e., 6 ft), the number of holes in showerhead, the surrounding temperature, etc. Solution This looks like the MEM345 Spring 2014 Final Exam Take-Home Problem..... .

1. Objective: to estimate the temperature of hot water when water falls to the base of shower stall.
Evaluation criteria
Observation (50%): describe how water comes out of showerhead and falls to the base of shower
stall.
Modeling (50%): Using heat transfer knowledge (conduction, radiation, and convection), setup a
mathematical model to estimate the temperature of hot water after hot water leaves shower head.
You can make a number of assumptions, including the initial temperature of hot water, flow rate
of water (i.e., 2 gallon per min), the height of showerhead (i.e., 6 ft), the number of holes in
showerhead, the surrounding temperature, etc.
