For heat transfer purposes, a standing man can be modeled as a 30-cm-diameter, 170-cm-long vertical cylinder with both top and bottom surfaces insulated and with the side surface at an average temperature of 34 °C. For a convection heat transfer coefficient of 15 W/m2∙°C, determine the rate of heat loss from this man by convection in an environment at 20 °C.
