  1. LightSaber Calculator FromBrandon Adamo, andJake Later

  2. scenario Our hero, Qui Gon Jinn, has just been attacked and he wants to kick some butt! What is his plan? Chase down the Viceroy of the Trade Federation and make him pay. Problem, he has to get through the blast doors to the bridge. Good thing he has his trusty light saber to melt through the door. But just how much energy would it take for him to melt the blast doors? http://youtu.be/2OTHjSG61SI?t=5m57s

  3. Assumptions • The only mode of heat transfer considered is conduction • Initial calculations were done assuming that the blast doors are made of a low carbon steel • We recognize that if it takes long enough convection from the molten liquid metal and radiation could play a role. Seeing as none of the Jedi burst into flames or seem to die of cancer we’ll assume that radiation is negligible.
