A spherical balloon gondola 2.4 m in diameter rises to an altitude where the ambient pressure is

Question:

A spherical balloon gondola 2.4 m in diameter rises to an altitude where the ambient pressure is 1.4 kPa and the ambient temperature is - 50oC. The outside surface of the sphere is at approximately 0oC. Estimate the free-convection heat loss from the outside of the sphere. How does this compare with the forced-convection loss from such a sphere with a low free-stream velocity of approximately 30 cm/s?
