Solved Examples – Radiation Heat Transfer

Problem 1

A furnace inside temperature of 2250 K has a glass circular viewing of 6 cm diameter. If


the transmissivity of glass is 0.08, make calculations for the heat loss from the glass
window due to radiation.

Problem 2

A thin metal plate of 4 cm diameter is suspended in atmospheric air whose temperature


is 290 K. the plate attains a temperature of 295 K when one of its face receives radiant
energy from a heat source at the rate of 2 W. If heat transfer coefficient on both
surfaces of the plate is stated to be 87.5 W/m2-deg, workout the reflectivity of the plates.

Problem 3

A black body of total area 0.045 m 2 is completely enclosed in a space bounded by 5 cm


thick walls. The walls have a surface area 0.5 m 2 and thermal conductivity 1.07 W/m-
deg. If the inner surface of the enveloping wall is to be maintained at 215°C and the
outer wall surface is at 30°C, calculate the temperature of the black body. Neglect the
difference between inner and outer surfaces areas of enveloping material.
Problem 4

A furnace radiation at 2000K. Treating it as a black body radiation, calculate the

(i) Monochromatic radiant flux density at 1 μm wavelength.

(ii) Wavelength at which emission is maximum and the corresponding radiant flux
density

(iii) Total emissive power, and

(iv) Wavelength λ such that emission from 0 to λ is equal to the emission from λ to ∞.

Problem 5

A gray surface has an emissivity at a temperature of 550 K source. If the surface is


opaque, calculate its reflectivity for a black body radiation coming from a 550 K source.

(b) A small 25 mm square hole is made in the thin-walled door of a furnace whose
inside walls are at 920 K. if the emissivity of the walls is 0.72, calculate the rate at which
radiant energy escapes from the furnace through the hole to the room.
P

The temperature of the flame in a furnace is 1900 K, find (a) monochromatic energy
emission at 1μ per m2 (b) λmax (c) monochromatic energy emission at λmax and at 1900 K.
(d) Ratio of Ebλ / (Ebλ)max (e) Total energy emitted/m2.
