A spherical tank of diameter, D = 2 m that is filled with liquid nitrogen at 100 K is kept in an evacuated cubic enclosure whose sides are 3 m long. The emissivities of the spherical tank and the enclosure are 0.1 and 0.8, respectively. If the temperature of the cubic enclosure is measured to be 240 K, determine the net radiation of heat transfer to the liquid nitrogen, assuming the enclosure to be a real surface (as described earlier).
