Forced-air warming systems involving inflatable thermal blankets commonly are used to prevent subnormal body temperature (hypothermia) during and following surgery. A heater and blower provide a stream of warmed air to the blanket. While the air temperature leaving the heater/ blower is monitored by a temperature sensor, the temperature of the air providing warming to patients can vary widely, causing in some instances overheating and localized burning of patients. The object of this project is to develop cost-effective modifications of existing thermal blankets that would control the air temperature and eliminate injurious "hot spots." The modifications must conform to standards governing the safety of systems involving heating in medical applications. Summarize your conclusions in a report, including sample calculations and at least three references.
