Consider a cubical furnace with a side length of 3 m. The top surface is maintained at 700 K. The base surface has an emissivity of 0.90 and is maintained at 950 K. The side surface is black and is maintained at 450 K. Heat is supplied from the base surface at a rate of 340 kW. Determine the emissivity of the top surface and the net rates of heat transfer between the top and the bottom surfaces, and between the bottom and side surfaces.

Question

Consider a cubical furnace with a side length of
3 m. The top surface is maintained at 700 K. The base surface
has an emissivity of 0.90 and is maintained at 950 K.
The side surface is black and is maintained at 450 K. Heat
is supplied from the base surface at a rate of 340 kW. Determine
the emissivity of the top surface and the net rates of
heat transfer between the top and the bottom surfaces, and
between the bottom and side surfaces.
