An astronaut performing an extra-vehicular activity(space walk) shaded from the Sun is wearing a spacesuitthat can be approximated as perfectly white (e = 0) exceptfor a 5 cm × 8 cm patch in the form of the astronaut’snational flag. The patch has emissivity 0.300. The spacesuitunder the patch is 0.500 cm thick, with a thermalconductivity k = 0.0600 W/m °C , and its inner surface isat a temperature of 20.0 °C . What is the temperature of thepatch, and what is the rate of heat loss through it? Assumethe patch is so thin that its outer surface is at the sametemperature as the outer surface of the spacesuit under it.Also assume the temperature of outer space is 0 K. You willget an equation that is very hard to solve in closed form,so you can solve it numerically with a graphing calculator,with software, or even by trial and error with a calculator.
Determine the heat flow between the roof and floor of 4 x 3 m size of a furnace of 4 m x 4 m x 3 m size when the roof is at 1200 K and the floor is maintained at 600 K, with the other surfaces non absorbing and reradiating.

A 4-mm-diameter sphere at 50°C is covered by a 1-mm-thick plastic insulation (k=0.13 W/m°C). The sphere is exposed to a medium at 15 °C, with a combined convective and radiative heat transfer coefficient of 20 W/m2 °C. Determine whether the plastic insulation over the sphere will help or harm heat transfer from the sphere.
