https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx How can I design and build a shelter that reduces heat transfer and keeps the ice cube from melting. en-us 2017-01-18 22:29:48 UTC 2026-02-02 05:58:30 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Lightdecrease.png caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/147969234 The type of penguins we are studying are Bolder Beach Penguins. They live off the coast of South Africa. They weigh 48 pounds and usually 20 inches tall. They have a curved black stripe across their chest. They are endangered. ]]> 2017-01-18 22:35:55 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/147969234 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/147969471 The penguins are loosing their eggs and struggling to keep cool. ]]> 2017-01-18 22:38:27 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/147969471 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/147969630 In the tray demo the conductor felt cooler on the outside because its transferring your heat to itself, so the insulators don't take the heat quickly. In the spoon demo we learned not to use medal because the ice cube melted faster which means its warmer. Finally in the house demo the hot air rises to the top so we want to make it is cold at the top. ]]> 2017-01-18 22:39:55 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/147969630 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/148393384 I am testing different materials to find out which are the best combinations. We did several different combinations, but the one that worked the most was bubble wrap and mylar. We are using this for our igloo. ]]> 2017-01-20 15:44:40 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/148393384 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/148395393 The insulators that prevented heat the most are mylar, foil, and bubble wrap.]]> 2017-01-20 15:50:20 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/148395393 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/148397898 I will apply what I learned today by putting the objects that prevented heat transfer into my home because I need to keep heat from getting into the home. We tested and used the materials that are the best insulators. We are going to use foil for the floor]]> 2017-01-20 15:57:19 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/148397898 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150253462 2017-01-30 15:08:13 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150253462 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150255407 2017-01-30 15:11:47 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150255407 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150255739 My groups home has mylar on top of the house and layers of bubble wrap in between. The door is a bunch of little flaps which made a triangle. The shape is a rectangle and the corners are folded. ]]> 2017-01-30 15:12:29 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150255739 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150257384 This is a picture of two penguins close up.]]> 2017-01-30 15:15:36 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150257384 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150266995 2017-01-30 15:36:26 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150266995 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150728813 The penguin before testing weighed 8.8 grams. When we took it out of the box and it was still hot. We weighed it after it was in the hot box for 20 minutes and it weighed 3.3 grams. It dropped 5.5 grams and the percentage lost was 62.5%. ]]> 2017-02-01 02:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150728813 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150730928 We added more bubble wrap and put mylar on top of that. We changed the door so heat couldn't escape into it. We canged it to two flaps and taped it shut. ]]> 2017-02-01 02:45:52 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150730928 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150731422 We stayed in the budget of $100 dollars and only used the materials that were provided. ]]> 2017-02-01 02:53:40 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150731422 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150732221 This is a picture of an egg and they keep loosing theirs. ]]> 2017-02-01 03:06:00 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150732221 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150732311 We did better the second time we tested and the percent lost was 34%. The mass it started at was 6.5 grams and ended at 4.3 grams. The failures in the design were the door because the air could still go through because of the holes in it. The successes were that it was under budget and the penguin could fit in the home. ]]> 2017-02-01 03:07:15 UTC https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150732311 caro4 https://padlet.com/caro4/s5dmhgayf7lx/wish/150733139 This is a picture of a group of Boulder Beach Penguins walking on the beach
