PROBLEM
A spherical container of diameter 300 mm is used to store the
liquid oxygen at -182˚C. The system is insulated by a concentric
sphere of diameter 450 mm. There is evacuated space
between the two spheres having same emissivity of 0.03. If the
temperature of outer sphere is 30˚C, estimate the H.T.R by
radiation to the oxygen in the container. Assume that inner
surface of outer sphere and outer surface of inner container
are diffuse and gray.

RADIATION SHIELDS
▪ A method to reduce radiant heat transfer between two
particular surfaces by introducing an additional surface
resistance in the heat flow path so that overall heat transfer
can be retarded is known as radiation shielding.
▪ These shields do not deliver or remove any heat from the
overall system.
▪ The shields only place another resistance in the heat-flow
path to retard the heat.
▪ Thin sheets of plastic coated with highly reflecting metallic
films on both sides serve as very effective radiation shields.
➢ HEAT EXCHANGE:
▪ Consider two parallel infinite planes as
shown in Fig. 1. Heat exchange between
these surfaces may be calculated as

PROBLEM
A cryogenic fluid flows through a long tube of 20-mm diameter,
the outer surface of which is diffuse and gray with 𝜖1 = 0.020
and 𝑇1 = 77𝐾. This tube is concentric with a larger tube of 50-
mm diameter, the inner surface of which is diffuse and gray with
𝜖2 = 0.05 and 𝑇2 = 300𝐾. The space between the surfaces is
evacuated. Calculate the heat gain by the cryogenic fluid per unit
length of tubes. If a thin radiation shield of 35-mm diameter and
𝜖3 = 0.02 (both sides) is inserted midway between the inner and
outer surfaces, calculate the change (percentage) in heat gain per
unit length of the tubes.

▪ Equation (2) is called Beer’s law and represents the exponential-
decay formula experienced in many types of radiation analyses
dealing with absorption.

▪ If the gas is non-reflecting, then:
𝜏𝜆 + 𝛼𝜆 = 1
֜ 𝛼𝜆 = 1 − 𝑒 −𝑎𝜆𝑥 →→ 4 𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐸𝑞𝑛. (3)
▪ It is obvious from Eqn. (4) that the absorptivity is a function of
the thickness of the gas layer 𝑥 and disports the temperature
dependence as well.
▪ Gases frequently absorb only in narrow wavelength bands e.g.,
water vapor has an absorptivity of about 0.7 between 1.4 and 1.5
𝜇𝑚, about 0.8 between 1.6 and 1.8 𝜇𝑚, about 1.0 between 2.6
and 2.8 𝜇𝑚, and about 1.0 between 5.5 and 7.0 𝜇𝑚.

RADIATION PROPERTIES OF THE
ENVIRONMENT
▪ The major portion of solar energy is concentrated in the short-
wavelength region as revealed by the radiation spectrum of the
sun. Consequently, the real surfaces may exhibit different
absorption properties for solar radiation than for long-wavelength
“earthbound” radiation.
▪ Meteorologists and hydrologists use the term insolation to
describe the intensity of direct solar radiation incident on a
horizontal surface per unit area and per unit time, designated with
the symbol ‘I’.
▪ Insolation is analogous to the term irradiation employed for
incident “earthbound” radiation. The meteorological literature
also uses the following unit:
1 𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑙𝑒𝑦 𝐿𝑦 = 1 𝑐𝑎𝑙/𝑐𝑚2 41.86 𝑘𝐽/𝑚2
Arranged by Prof. Dr. Asad Naeem Shah
RADIATION PROPERTIES OF THE
ENVIRONMENT Cont.
▪ Insolation and radiation intensity are frequently expressed in
langley per unit time e.g., the Stefan-Boltzmann constant may be
given as:
𝜎 = 0.826 × 10−10 𝐿𝑦/𝑚𝑖𝑛 ∙ 𝐾 4
▪ Radiation heat transfer in the environment is governed by the
absorption, scattering, and reflection properties of the atmosphere
and natural surfaces.
➢ SCATTERING OF RADIATION:
▪ Following two types of scattering phenomena occur in the
atmosphere:
1. Molecular scattering
2. Particulate scattering
Arranged by Prof. Dr. Asad Naeem Shah
RADIATION PROPERTIES OF THE
ENVIRONMENT Cont.
o Molecular scattering is observed because of the interaction of
radiation with individual molecules. The blue color of the sky results
from the scattering of the violet (short) wavelengths by the air
molecules.
o Particulate scattering results from the interaction of radiation with
the many types of particles that may be suspended in the air e.g.,
dust, smog, and water droplets are all particulate scattering centers.
The scattering process is governed mainly by the size of the particle
in comparison with the wavelength of radiation. Maximum
scattering occurs when wavelength and particle size are equal and
decreases progressively for longer wavelengths. For wavelengths
smaller than the particle size, the radiation tends to be reflected.
Arranged by Prof. Dr. Asad Naeem Shah
RADIATION PROPERTIES OF THE
ENVIRONMENT Cont.
▪ As reflection phenomena in the atmosphere occur for
wavelengths less than the particle size, thus are independent of
wavelength in this region.
▪ The term albedo is used to describe the reflective properties of
surfaces and is defined by:
