11.41 Determine the steady-state temperatures of two radiation shields placed in the evacuated space between two infinite planes at temperatures of 555 K and 278 K. The emissivity of all surfaces is 0.8.
11.68 Two infinitely large, black, plane surfaces are 0.3 m apart, and the space between them is filled by an isothermal gas mixture at 811 K and atmospheric pressure. The gas mixture consists of by volume. If one of the surfaces is maintained at 278 K and the other at 1390 K, calculate (a) the effective emissivity of the gas at its temperature, (b) the effective absorptivity of the gas to radiation from the 1390 K surface, (c) the effective absorptivity of the gas to radiation from the 278 K surface, and (d) the net rate of heat transfer to the gas per square meter of surface area.
Determine the total average hemispherical emissivity and the emissive power of a surface that has a spectral hemispherical emissivity of 0.8 at wavelengths less than 1.5m, 0.6 at wavelengths from 1.5to2.5m, and 0.4 at wavelengths longer than 2.5m. The surface temperature is 1111 K.
A tungsten filament is heated to 2700 K. At what wavelength is the maximum amount of radiation emitted? What fraction of the total energy is in the visible range (0.4to0.75m)? Assume that the filament radiates as a graybody.
Earth absorbs solar energy and radiates infrared energy. The intensity of the solar radiation incident on earth is J = 1350 Wm-2, also known as the solar constant. Assume earth’s surface (ground) temperature to be uniform at Ts, and that the ground and atmosphere are black (emissivity = 1) for infrared radiation. The radius of the earth is 6.378 x 106 m. The diagram shows the ground at the surface temperature Ts and the atmosphere, represented as a thin black layer, at temperature Ta . Suppose the atmosphere absorbs 100% of the infrared radiation emitted by the ground. Assume that the ground absorbs 47.5% of the incident solar energy, and that the atmosphere absorbs 17.5% of the incident solar energy (for a total of 65% absorbed by the planet). Calculate the "steady state” numerical values of the earth’s ground temperature Ts and the atmospheric temperature Ta taking into account the “greenhouse effect” of atmospheric infrared absorption and emission described above.
