    2018-Chris McCarthy-Newtons Law of Cooling
    You have hot water (initial temperature ) in a container, say a cup or glass. The temperature in the room is cooler, say a constant degrees Celsius. Come up with a differential equation that models the water's temperature.

    1-088-RoomTemperature-ModelingScenario
    Students will analyze temperature variations in a room using Newton's Cooling Law. In this model, the only influence on the indoor temperature is the (oscillating) outdoor temperature (as we assume the heating/cooling system is broken).

    2011-Carl_Leinbach-Beyond Newton's law of cooling - estimation of time since death
    The paper offers an excellent history of temperature-based methods and then proceeds to demonstrate these with some data. Here the history is rich and will support student investigation as well as faculty development.

    1-079-HomeHeating-ModelingScenario
    This project concerns using Newton's Law of Cooling to model the heating of a house. In particular, if one is going away for awhile, is it more economical to leave a house at a desired temperature or reheat it upon return?

    2011-Carl_Leinbach-Beyond_Newton_law_of_cooling_estimation_of_time_since_death
    The estimate of the time since death. Thus, the time of death is strictly that, an estimate. However, the time of death can be an important piece of information in some coroner’s cases, especially those that involve criminal or insurance...
