Abstract

Our primary objective was to assess the significance of unconventional ambient temperature models in validating Newton’s law of cooling. To accomplish this, we employed temperature sensors and selected different time spans for the duration of our experiments. The findings of this study will offer valuable insights into the applicability of Newton’s law in scenarios characterized by fluctuating environmental conditions. This research aims to broaden the range of applications for the law and enhance the accuracy of temperature predictions.
