The development of contact lenses has transformed the solutions that are available today for vision impairments. However, wearing them also poses several problems that includes the condition of dry eyes due to lack of cooling, oxygenation, and moisturizing or lubrication of cornea, among others. In a development phase of a new protective liquid for contact lenses, the optometrist would like to know rate of heat loss from the anterior chamber of the eye through the cornea and the contact lens. The system is modelled as a partial hollow sphere, as shown in schematic diagram. The inner and outer radius of the cornea are respectively r1=10 mm and r2=12.5 mm, and the outer radius of the fitted contact lens is r3=14.5 mm. The anterior chamber, which contains the aqueous humor that provides

nutrients to the cornea (as the later tissue has no blood vessels), exposes the inner surface of the cornea to a temperature of Ti=36.90C with a convective heat transfer coefficient of h? i=10 W/(m2 K). The thermal conductivity of transparent tissue of cornea is 0.35 W/(m K), and that of the contact lens material is 0.8 W/(m K). The outer surface of the contact lens is exposed to room air at T0=220C and has a convection coefficient of h? 0=5 W/(m2 K). Draw a thermal circuit for the system showing all of the temperature potentials and thermal resistances. Then estimate the rate of heat loss from the anterior eye assuming that steady state exists and eye aperture spherical angle is of 1000
