Solar radiation is incident on the glass cover of a solar collector at a rate of 700W/m². The glass of collector absorbs 88 percent of the incident radiation on it and has an emissivity of 0.9. The entire hot water needs of a family can be provided by a single collector of 1.2m height and 2m width. The temperature of the glass cover of the collector is measured to be 35C° on a day when the surrounding air temperature is 25C° and the wind is blowing at 30km/h. The effective sky temperature for radiation exchange between the glass cover and the open sky is -40C°. Water enters the tubes which attached to the absorber plate at a rate of 1kg/min. Assuming the back surface of the absorber plate to be heavily insulated and the only heat loss to occur through the glass cover, determine (a) the total rate of heat loss from the collector, (b) the collector efficiency, which is the ratio of the amount of heat transferred to the water to the solar energy incident on the collector, and (c) the temperature rise of water as it flows through the collector.

The door of an oven in the kitchen of a house is 0.5 m high and 0.7 m wide. When the oven is operating, the outside temperature of the door reaches 32°C. Calculate the heat transfer from the oven door towards the room at 22°C, taking into account the effects of radiation. The emissivity of the oven door is 1 and the walls of the kitchen are at 22°C. (σ = 5.67 x 10-8 W/m 2K4 , g = 9.81 m/s2 ) NOTE: More precise values for weather characteristics can be obtained from resources on the internet. Also indicate the source you received.

The inner side of one disc has an emissivity of 0.5 and is manintained at 500 C by electric resistance heating and the outer side of the disc is well insulated. The other disc is Two parallel discs of 1m diameter are situated 2m apart in surroundings at a temperature of 20 oC. The inner side of one disc has an emissivity of 0.5 and is maintained at 500 oC by electric resistance heating and the outer side of the disc is well insulated. The other disc is open to radiation on both sides and reaches an equilibrium temperature. Calculate this equilibrium temperature and the heat flow rate from the first disc, assuming heat transfer is entirely by radiation.
