  4. 1-079-HomeHeating-ModelingScenario

    24 May 2022 | Teaching Materials | Contributor(s):

    By Kurt Bryan

    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 houseat a desired temperature...

  5. 1-088-RoomTemperature-ModelingScenario

    23 May 2022 | Teaching Materials | Contributor(s):

    By Tracy Weyand

    Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

    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...

    22 May 2022 | Teaching Materials | Contributor(s):

    By Lisa Driskell, Audrey Malagon1

    Virginia Wesleyan College, Norfolk VA USA

    Students use linear differential equations to model temperature change, in a sand tide pool and inside the shell of a snail in the tide pool. We offer data on temperature in a tide pool as the sun...

  7. 1-114-EarthClimate-ModelingScenario

    22 May 2022 | Teaching Materials | Contributor(s):

    By Terrance Pendleton

    In this modeling scenario, we investigate the Earth's climate using a zero-dimensional energy balance model. Energy balance models are climate models that try to predict the average surface...

  9. 7-020-ThermometerInVaryingTempStream-ModelingScenario

    16 May 2022 | Teaching Materials | Contributor(s):

    By Norman Loney

    We present a first order differential equation model for the temperature of a mercury thermometer which is sitting in a stream of water whose temperature oscillates. We suggest a solving strategy...
