Y’all mad at it being AI, but I think you might have missed out on a very fun thermodynamics problem…
How cold does it need to be outside to keep the beer at a chilled drinking temperature, but also how thick does the insulating layer need to be between them and the beer to keep them comfortable, without going hypothermic?
I’ve been out of the physics game for a while so I cheated and asked AI.
- “Chilled beer” target: 4 °C
- Skin temperature (inner surface facing the beer): ≈33 °)
- Beer thermal conductivity ≈ 0.6 W/(m·K)
- Heat-loss budget (steady-state) for comfort at rest ≈ 80 W per m²
- Required foam liner ≈ 9.4 mm (0.37 in)
Kind of bulky for an average outing but given a certain situation or event!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
AI is a really dumb content generator but can be an interesting fun fact approximater!
There’s easily 4 gallons of fluid in the torso and maybe another gallon in each of the arms (eyeballing from years of camelbak ownership). Being lazy and not looking up the weight of beer, water weighs 8.8 lb per gallon. So at least 50 pounds of fluid. He’s working off his beer belly just walking around with that. We’re looking at the next exercise revolution.

I was more interested in how much it would weigh.

Same.

My first thought, too.
