Liquid oxygen is stored in a thin-walled spherical vessel with a diameter of 0.8 m, which is enclosed within a second thin-walled spherical vessel with a diameter of 1.2 m. The surfaces of the two spherical vessels have an emissivity of 0.05 and are separated by a void space. The surfaces of the two spherical vessels have an emissivity of 0.05 and are separated by a void space. If the outer surface is at 280 K and the inner surface is at 95 K, what is the mass flow of oxygen lost due to evaporation?

Question
Liquid oxygen is stored in a thin-walled spherical vessel with a diameter of 0.8 m, which is enclosed within a second thin-walled spherical vessel with a diameter of 1.2 m. The surfaces of the two spherical vessels have an emissivity of 0.05 and are separated by a void space. The surfaces of the two spherical vessels have an emissivity of 0.05 and are separated by a void space. If the outer surface is at 280 K and the inner surface is at 95 K, what is the mass flow of oxygen lost due to evaporation? (The latent heat of vaporization of oxygen is 2.13x105 J/kg).
