Question

Liquid oxygen is stored in a thin-walled, spherical container 0.8 m in diameter, which is enclosed within a second thin-walled, spherical container 1.4 m in diameter. The opaque, diffuse, gray container surfaces have an emissivity of 0.05 and are separated by an evacuated space. If the outer surface is at 270 K and the inner surface is at 95 K, what is the mass rate of oxygen lost due to evaporation, in kg/s? (The latent heat of vaporization of oxygen is 2.13 × 105 J/kg.)

* Your answer is incorrect.
Liquid oxygen is stored in a thin-walled, spherical container 0.8 m in diameter, which is enclosed within a second
thin-walled, spherical container 1.4 m in diameter. The opaque, diffuse, gray container surfaces have an emissivity
of 0.05 and are separated by an evacuated space. If the outer surface is at 270 K and the inner surface is at 95 K,
what is the mass rate of oxygen lost due to evaporation, in kg/s? (The latent heat of vaporization of oxygen is 2.13
x 105 J/kg.)
m =
1.07
kg/s
