(a) Using the analysis found in Sec. 12.6.1, calculate the depth below the surface where the amplitude of the temperature oscillations has attenuated to 1 percent of the amplitude at the surface. The wall material is aluminum and the fourstroke cycle engine is operating at 2500 rev/min. For this estimate, consider only the temperature oscillations which have a frequency equal to the engine firing frequency (w = 2xNlnd.
(b) Repeat the calculation for the engine operating at 5000 rev/min.
(c) What is the dependence of the penetration depth on the amplitude of surface temperature fluctuations?
