Save the penguins! by Caitlyn Miller https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj Made by Caitlyn ♥ en-us 2018-02-08 16:51:35 UTC 2023-01-24 20:42:57 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Hotsun.png Step 1. Identify the problem millcait https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229681603 These penguins needs saving because they are dying rapidly in South Africa and they are getting their eggs taken away. Penguins are endangered and in need of saving. How can I design and build a shelter that reduces heat transfer and keep my ice cube penguin from melting?]]> 2018-02-08 16:53:30 UTC https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229681603 Step 2. Research the problem millcait https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229681649 Our top three insulators were cotton, aluminum and paper]]> 2018-02-08 16:53:33 UTC https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229681649 Step 3. Brainstorm possible solutions millcait https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229681794 I can apply the demos we did in class to help my penguin better and to help design a better solution. I can use the attic and floor lab to my ability and keep in mind that the roof will get hot first.]]> 2018-02-08 16:53:45 UTC https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229681794 Step 4. Select one solution millcait https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229682134 The materials we will be using is aluminum, cotton and a feather. The aluminum will act as a base, walls and roof, the cotton maybe inside of the walls and the feather broken up along the walls.

Construct prototype millcait https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229682265 2018-02-08 16:54:25 UTC https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229682265 Step 6. Test prototype millcait https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229682545 The shape of the house was good and so was the insulation, but it melted the icecube too fast. 70% of it was gone.]]> 2018-02-08 16:54:49 UTC https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229682545 Step 7. Modify design to improve it millcait https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229682888 We modified various things of it and added an insulator, we added cotton balls inside the walls so that the icecube doesn't melt as fast]]> 2018-02-08 16:55:19 UTC https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229682888 Present and redesign if needed millcait https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229683378 We would of put more things in the walls and changed the floor into an insulator instead of a conductor.]]> 2018-02-08 16:55:59 UTC https://padlet.com/millcait/jnblh3phxicj/wish/229683378
