A radiation shield that has the same emissivity 3 on both sides is placed between two large parallel plates, which are maintained at uniform temperatures of T1 = 650 K and T2 = 400 K and have emissivities of E1 = 0.6 and E2 = 0.9, respectively. Determine the emissivity of the radiation shield if the radiation heat transfer between the plates is to be reduced to 15 percent of that without the radiation shield

Question

A radiation shield that has the same emissivity 3 on both sides is placed between two large parallel plates, which are maintained at uniform temperatures of T1 = 650 K and T2 = 400 K and have emissivities of E1 = 0.6 and E2 = 0.9, respectively. Determine the emissivity of the radiation shield if the radiation heat transfer between the plates is to be reduced to 15 percent of that without the radiation shield
