6.2.4 Example A: Radiator

Course subject(s) 6. Radiation

We would like to compare the heat transfer coefficient of radiation and convection . So, we have a radiator with a temperature of . Air is rising from the radiator: free convection. And, heat is radiating to the surroundings with a temperature of . Calculate both heat transfer coefficients if the emission coefficient is about 0.9 and Prandtl number is 0.7.

, , and . Take for the length and for the gravity constant .
