Calculate the ratio of the radiant energy emitted from a surface at 37ºC and an adjacent surface of
equal area and emissivity at 35ºC.
Two very large parallel plates are kept at uniform temperatures T1=800 K and T2=500 K, and have emissivities ε1=0.2 y ε2=0.7, respectively, as shown in the figure. Determine the net rate of radiation heat transfer between the two surfaces per unit surface area of the plates.
Two concentric spheres of diameters D1 = 15 cm and D2 = 25 cm are separated by air at 1 atm pressure. The surface temperatures of the two spheres enclosing the air are T1 = 350 K and T2 = 275 K, respectively, and their emissivities are 0.75. Determine the rate of heat transfer from the inner sphere to the outer sphere by (a) natural convection and (b) radiation.
