can be further challenged by asking them to minimize heat transfer byoptimizing the height of the tank, while keeping the volume constant. The goal in this case is tominimize Q by reducing surface area, which is a function of tank height (H) and radius (r1), asshown in Eq. 4. Since tank volume is constant, Eq. 5 can be substituted into Eq. 4 for r1 to obtainAs as a function of H. The tank height that provides the minimum surface area can then be found Spring 2015 Mid-Atlantic ASEE Conference, April 10-11, 2015 Villanova Universityby taking the derivative of As(H) and setting it equal to zero. This optimum value of H can thenbe used to find the minimum insulation thickness

expert, the webinars are hosted on a videoconferencing platform that allows presenters and attendees to be seen simultaneously;there is no “sage on the stage.” Presenters begin with information about their experienceand expertise, but “Q&A” always makes up a large part of the discussion, allowingparticipants to develop a clearer understanding of how the strategies shared might applyon their campus. As such, these online webinars are not simply an opportunity to increaseknowledge; they are an opportunity to foster a sense of community among theparticipants.As part of the application process for Pathways teams, applicants are now required toinclude in their application the reasons why they want to be a part of the Pathwayscommunity of practice
