The total emissive power of a surface is $$500$$ $$W/{m^2}$$ at a temperature $${T_1}$$ and $$1200$$ $$W/{m^2}$$ at a temperature $${T_2}$$, where the temperatures are in Kelvin. Assuming the emissivity of the surface to be constant, the ratio of the temperatures $${{{T_1}} \over {{T_2}}}$$ is

A solid sphere $$1$$ of radius $$'r'$$ is placed inside a hollow, closed hemispherical surface $$2$$ of radius $$'4r'.$$ The shape factor $${F_{2 - 1}}$$ is ...

Two infinite parallel plates are placed at a certain distance apart. An infinite radiation shield is inserted between the plates without touching any of them to reduce heat exchange between the plates. Assume that the emissivities of plates and radiation shield are equal. The ratio of the net heat exchange between the plates with and without the shield is

A solid sphere of radius$${r_1} = 20\,\,mm$$ is placed concentrically inside a hollow sphere of radius $${r_2} = 30\,\,mm$$ as shown in the figure.

The view factor $${F_{21}}$$ for radiation heat transfer is
