Chapter 13, Problem 13.27P
To enhance heat rejection from a spacecraft, an engineer proposes to attach an array of rectangular fins to the outer surface of the spacecraft and to coat all surfaces with a material that approximates blackbody behavior.
Consider the U-shaped region between adjoining fins and subdivide the surface into components associated with the base (1) and the side (2). Obtain an expression for the rate per unit length at which radiation is transferred from the surfaces to deep space, which may be approximated as a blackbody at absolute zero temperature. The fins and the base may be assumed to be isothermal at a temperature T. Comment on your result. Does the engineer’s proposal have merit?

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.
Ambient 15°C Tsurr = 15°C
h = 12 W/m².K

(A) Determine the heat emitted from the plate, as a blackbody.
(B) Determine the radiation incident on the plate from the surroundings.
(C) Determine the heat transfer from the plate to the surroundings.
(D) Determine the required electric power.
A thin, disk-shaped silicon wafer of diameter D=20 cm on a production line must be maintained at a temperature of 100 deg C. The wafer loses heat to the room by convection and radiation from its upper surface, while heat is supplied at a constant flux from below. The surrounding air is at 20 deg C, while all surrounding surfaces (which can be treated as blackbodies) can be approximated to be isothermal at a temperature of 15 deg C. The wafer-to-air heat transfer coefficient is 30 W/m2-K and the emissivity of the wafer’s surface (which can be approximated to be gray) is 0.85. How much heat (in W) must be supplied to the wafer?
A 5 mm-thick steel firewall is suddenly exposed to a radiant heat source that can be approximated as a blackbody at 1000K. How long will it take for the surface to reach 500 K if the initial temperature of the wall is 300K?
