An enclosure has an inside area of 50 m², and its inside surface is black and is maintained at a constant temperature. A small opening in
the enclosure has an area of 0.03 m². The radiant power emitted from this opening is 52 W. What is the temperature of the interior
enclosure wall, in K? If the interior surface is maintained at this temperature, but is now polished so that its emissivity is 0.15, what will
be the value of the radiant power emitted from the opening, in W?

An uninsulated steam pipe passes through a room in which the air and walls are at 25°C. The tube's outer diameter is 70 mm and its surface temperature and emissivity are 200°C and 0.8, respectively. Determine the surface emissive power and the irradiation. If the coefficient associated with the natural convection of surface heat transfer to air is 15 W/m².K, what will be the heat transfer rate per unit length of pipe?
Question #9
A circular ceramic plate that can be modelled as a blackbody is being heated by an electrical
heater. The plate is 30cm in diameter and is situated in a surrounding ambient temperature
of 15°C where the natural convection heat transfer coefficient is 12W/m² K. The efficiency
of the electrical heater to transfer heat to the plate is 80%, the electric power is required
such that the heater needs to keep the surface temperature of the plate at 200°C.
