Explanation: 2(11631.7) = 5.67 * 10 –8 T 4.
5. A furnace having inside temperature of 2250 has a glass circular viewing of 6 cm diameter. If the transmissivity of glass is 0.08, make calculations for the heat loss from the glass window due to radiation
a) 234.54 W
b) 652.32 W
c) 328.53 W
d) 762.32 W
View Answer
Explanation: Q = σ A T4 (t) = 328.53 W.
6. The value of radiation coefficient or the Stefan-Boltzmann constant is
a) 5.67 * 10 -8 W/m2 K4
b) 5.67 * 10 -7 W/m2 K4
c) 5.67 * 10 -6 W/m2 K4
d) 5.67 * 10 -5 W/m2 K4
View Answer
Explanation: q = α A T4.
7. Measurements were made of the monochromatic absorptivity and monochromatic hemispherical irradiation incident on an opaque surface, and the variation of these parameters with wavelength may be approximated by the result shown below. Determine the total hemispherical absorptivity
a) 0.557
b) 0.667
c) 0.777
d) 0.887
View Answer
Explanation: Incident flux = 800(8 – 2) – 4800 W/m2. Absorptivity = 3200/4800 = 0.667.
8. What is the wavelength band for Ultraviolet rays?
a) 1 * 10 -6 to 3.9 * 10 -1 micron meter
b) 1 * 10 -4 to 3.9 * 10 -1 micron meter
c) 2 * 10 -3 to 3.9 * 10 -1 micron meter
d) 1 * 10 -2 to 3.9 * 10 -1 micron meter
View Answer
Explanation: This is the maximum and minimum wavelength for Ultraviolet rays.
9. A black body of total area 0.045 m2 is completely enclosed in a space bounded by 5 cm thick walls. The walls have a surface area 0.5 m 2 and thermal conductivity 1.07 W/ m K. If the inner surface of the enveloping wall is to be maintained at 215 degree Celsius and the outer wall surface at 30 degree Celsius, calculate the temperature of the black body
a) 547.3 K
b) 287.4 K
c) 955.9 K
d) 222.2 K
View Answer
Explanation: Q r = σ A (T b4 – Tw4), Q c = k A d t/δ = 1979.5 W. So temperature of black body is 955.9 K.
