Mechanical Engineering > GATE 2026 > Radiation Heat Transfer
Two rectangular surfaces both having 1 m2 area are placed perpendicular to each other with a common edge. One surface is hot, having a temperature of 1000 K and emissivity of 0.4, while the other is insulated and in radiant balance with a large surrounding room at 300 K. If the fraction of radiation leaving the hot surface which reaches the cold surface is 0.2, then the equivalent overall resistance for the radiation heat loss from the hot surface is _______ m−2 (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
Correct : 2.94
