A metal ball of surface area 200 cm2 and temperature 527o C is surrounded by a vessel at 27o C. If the emissivity of the metal is 0.4, then the rate of loss of heat from the ball is (ρ=5.67×10−5J/m2−s−k4)
182 joules approx.
Rate of heat loss E=ρeA(T4−T40)
=5.6×10−8×0.4×200×10−4×[(273+527)4−(273+27)4]
=5.67×10−8×0.4×200×10−4×(800)4−(300)4=182 J/sec
