What temperature can it reach inside your car in summer?

There’s no doubt we get scorching summers in NSW, and who hasn’t got into a car and been barely able to touch the steering wheel because of the heat?

Sea breezes won’t keep your car cool
A car (or a truck cabin) in summer can be up to thirty degrees Celsius hotter than the outside temperature. When it’s a balmy 35 degrees outside, it’s could be a deadly 65 degrees inside. The steering wheel and the dashboard, being black which absorbs the heat, can be twenty degrees hotter still – a whopping 85 degrees Celsius which is enough to burn.
Every year in Australia, people leave children and/or pets in hot cars. Occasionally a child or pet dies or, suffers brain damage.

Enzymes are destroyed and flesh begins to be cooked

The speed at which cars can heat up is quite alarming. If the outside temperature is a pleasant 24C and your car is in the sun, within 10 minutes it can reach 38C inside. Within 30 minutes it’ll be approaching 50C. If you leave your child or dog in that type of heat, it gradually increases their core temperature as they are unable to lose heat quickly enough (especially dogs and cats which can’t sweat and have to lose heat by panting). Once their core body temperature reaches 41.5C, their cells start to break down as enzymes are destroyed.
In fact, celebrity chef Matt Moran decided to do that with a lamb steak and a RAV4

How do you keep the inside of your car or truck cool?

  • Leave your windows open an inch or so. Any breeze will help keep the air moving a little, but it won’t make that much difference to the inside of the vehicle. It’s definitely not enough to justify leaving a child or pet in the car. It’s also not great for security.
  • Close the blind for the sunroof, but leave the actual sunroof open a little – make sure there’s no chance of rain
  • Park in the shade
  • Use a reflective screen on the inside of your windscreen
  • Use a solar-powered fan that can clip onto a slightly open window to draw outside air in
  • Buy a lighter coloured car that reflects heat more effectively
  • Use legal tinted windows designed to reflect heat (note, the darkness of the tint doesn’t affect how much heat is admitted that much).

ars electronica 2018, future humanity

https://ars.electronica.art/aeblog/en/2018/11/07/future-humanity-hyundai/

Future Humanity – Our Shared Planet: Is this the future?

In November 2018, Ars Electronica and Hyundai Motor Group will open three exhibitions around the world on the theme of “Future Humanity – Our Shared Planet”. The shows at Hyundai Motor Studios in Moscow, Seoul and Beijing will artistically examine what it means to be human in the future. We found out more in this interview.

What does humanity mean – now and in the future? How do technologies change our everyday lives – and vice versa? Ars Electronica and the Hyundai Motor Group want to find out: In three exhibitions at different locations around the world, artistic works are dedicated to the theme of “Future Humanity – Our Shared Planet“. The motor studios in MoscowSeouland Beijing will be the setting for works at the interface of art, technology and society.
Together with Ars Electronica and the Central Academy of Fine Arts Beijing (CAFA), the Hyundai Motorstudio in Beijing is showing the most extensive selection – both local and international artists are presenting their works on the theme here. We met with Martin Honzik, Ars Electronica curator, for an interview and found out more.


"The Human Heart is made of Flesh" 2018, Egypt. (3d printed sculpture for outdoor permanent display)










3d printed sculpture designed for outdoor permanent exhibition for indefinite period.  Location:  Egyptian Desert.  Temperature:  high


Observation of this new material - 3d printing with filaments - for a permanent outdoor display 

As we know PLA could stay outdoor for 2 years or more (no other published data from users) in Europe.  There has been a 4 meter high sculpture printed with normal infill printed as an outdoor sculpture.   And one in Amsterdam as a statue.  (more research to be done)

To know the exact temperature/conditions inside the glass volume we need to use a thermometer.

The upper part is in PET. White lace plate is in PLA. 
As it is an outdoor installation, with a glass enclosure and bottom lighting, it gets very hot inside. 

We could see after one day in the sunlight, the PLA started to warp a little, it demonstrates buckling and gives a flying aspect to the disk. 

The glass covered volume turns into a "solar slow cooking device".
It is very interesting and we will observe how much warping will continue, and would be very good to have results over one years time. 
  How will the "Human Heart is made of Flesh" survive 4 seasons ?  What behaviors will we see?

We already know the traditional materials, metal and stone; glass has been historically tested to with stand sun rays.  However with wood, it is much more delicate.  And with stone, over time, there will be wind etching too.  Soft wood will not last.  Soft stone will be etched by the wind if left outside unprotected.  What kind of new materials we could use to last longer than the traditional ones?  Carbon fiber?  maybe.  :)

Here, I am looking at my first 3d sculpture living in the desert.

I am looking forwards to seeing photos of this Heart over a years time.

Stay tuned!

Bonding PET material


All Permabond cyanoacrylate adhesives bond PET when Permabond POP primer is used first.  Permabond 105 and 2050 provide the highest strength.  Cyanoacrylates are often desired due to the fast set times, however, they provide poor resistance to polar solvents.  They do provide good resistance to non-polar solvents.
The temperature resistance of both the TA4610 and cyanoacrylates exceed the temperature resistance of PET.
UV curable adhesives and two-part epoxies such as ET515 or modified epoxy such as MT3809 bond PET that has been flame, corona, or plasma treated.

Tips for surface preparation and bonding:

For untreated PET there are several options.
  1.  Bond as received with Permabond TA4605 or TA4610
  2. Prime with Permabond POP and use a cyanoacrylate adhesive.  Note that POP only increases adhesive when using a cyanoacrylate, therefore it won’t increase adhesion of other adhesive types.
  3. Flame, corona or plasma treat the PET surface.  After treatment, most adhesives types will provide some adhesion.
Properties of PET
  • Surface energy: 44mJ/m²
  • Maximum service temperature: 70°C - means dont put boiling water into pet bottles, no above 70°C in contact w material
  • Melting temperature: 250°C
PET Uses

  • Packaging, plastic bottles
  • Woven materials such as sailcloth
  • Disposable medical devices
  • Films and wraps

    To determine the best specific adhesive to bond PET in your application, please provide some detail to our technical team and our adhesive advisors will get back to you with a recommendation.
