Radiation-:-Exchange-between-Surfaces

A 250 mm by 250 mm ingot casting, 1.5 m high and at 1225 K temperature, is stripped from its mold. The casting is made to stand on end on floor of a large foundry whose wall, floor and roof can be assumed to be at 300 K temperature. Make calculation for rate of radiant heat interchange between casting and room. The casting material has an emissivity of 0.85
