Calculation of the rate of the thermal radiation

Thermal radiation is the process of transferring heat through electromagnetic radiation that is produced by the thermal motion of matter particles. We use the concept of radiation. Using the equation of the rate at which an object emits energy via thermal radiation and the equation of the rate at which the object absorbs energy and substituting these two equations in the equation of net rate of energy exchange, we can calculate the cylinder’s net thermal radiation rate.

Formulae:

The total surface area of the cylinder, A=2Ï€r2+2Ï€rh …(¾±)

The rate at which the sphere emits thermal radiation, Prad=σϵAT4 …(¾±¾±)

where,σis the Stefan–Boltzmann constant and is equal to(5.67×10−8 W/³¾2K4)

The net rate of the radiation, Pnet=Pabs−Prad …(¾±¾±¾±)

(a) Calculation of cylinder’s net thermal radiation

The surface area of the cylinder is given by using equation (i) as:

A1=2π(2.5×10−2m)2+2π(2.5×10−2m)(5.0×10−2m)=1.18×10−2m2

The rate at which an object emits energy via electromagnetic radiation is given by using equation (ii) as:

Prad=σ∈AT4

And the rate at which an object absorbs energy via thermal radiation from its environment, which we take to be at uniform temperatureTenv(in Kelvin’s), is given using equation (ii) as:

Pabs=σϵATenv4

Because an object both emits and absorbs thermal radiation, its net rate of energy exchange due to thermal radiation, the net rate of energy radiation is given using equation (iii) as:

Pnet=σϵA(Tenv4−T4)=(5.67×10−8 W/³¾2K4)(0.85)(1.18×10−2m2)((323‿é)4−(303‿é)4)=1.4 W

Hence, net energy is absorbed by radiation.

Pnetis positive if the net energy is being absorbed via radiation and negative if it is lost via radiation.

(b) Calculation of the ratio P2 /P1

Let the new height of the cylinder beh2.Since the volume V of the cylinder is fixed, we have the equation as:

Ï€r12h1=Ï€r22h2

We solve for the heighth2:

h2=(r1r2)2h1=(2.5cm0.50cm)2(5.0cm)=125 c³¾=1.25″¾

The corresponding new surface areaA2of the cylinder is given using equation (i) as:

A2=2Ï€(0.50×10−2m)2+2Ï€(0.50×10−2m)(1.25″¾)=3.94×10−2m2

Consequently, the ratio of the rates of energy is given as:

P2P1=A2A1=3.94×10−2m21.18×10−2m2=3.3

Hence, the value of the required ratio is3.3
