Substituting in specic values and applying the initial condition T (0) = 85 C, the temperature is described by the equation: T (t) = 61.5t + 85 (b) Solving the equation for a temperature of 250 C: 250 = 61.5t + 85 t = 2.7 s 3. (a) The unsteady-state heat conduction equation that applies to the roasting of a turkey is: T = t

A linear t, with a coecient of determination of 0.99, shows that the mass of the turkey and cooking time are related by the following equation: 2 t(m) = 0.785m 3 0.172 (c) This equation can be applied for a 400 lbm turkey: t(400) = 0.785(400) 3 0.172 t(400) = 42.5 h 4. Since the length of the pellet is much greater than its diameter, we can model the pellet as an innite cylinder. The unsteady-state energy equation for the pellet, in cylindrical coordinates, is: Cp 1 T =k t r r r T r
