An electric heating blanket is subjected to an acceptance test. It is to dissipate 400 W on the high setting when hanging in air at 20°C. (a) If the blanket is 1.3-m-wide: what is the length required if its average temperature at the high setting is to be 40°C, (b) If the average temperature at the low setting is to be 30°C, what rate of dissipation is possible?

GIVEN
• An electric blanket hanging in air
• Heat dissipation rate (qh) = 400 W
• Air temperature (T?) = 20°C
• Blanket width (w) = 1.3 m
• Average temperatures ? High (Tsh) = 40°C
? Low (Ts1) = 30°C
FIND
(a) The length of the blanket (L) (b) Heat dissipation rate on the low setting (q1) ASSUMPTIONS
• Air is still
• Moisture in the air has a negligible effect
• Blanket is hung vertically with its 1.3 m sides vertical
