Heat radiates from a small sphere suspended in a large room. The surfaceof the sphere of 1.5 sq. Ft. is at a temperature of 580 °F, and the insidesurfaces of the room are at a temperature of 80 °F. Assuming the emissivity ofthe sphere surface to be 0.30, calculate the radian-heat transfer in BTU/hr.

- You can neglect radiation at the bottom of the plate; the bottom side of the plate has water flowing underneath it. Often, when dealing with liquids (rather than gases), one can neglect radiation because heat transfer due to convection is so much larger (liquids tend to have higher convection coefficient values than gases).arrow_forwardThe bottom of the box shown is a radiant heater. The top of the box is open to the surroundings. What percentage of the heat goes out the top? What fraction impinges on each of the four sides?
