Question:

A circular duct 2 ft long with a diameter of 3 in. has a thermocouple in its center with a surface area of 0.3 in.2. The duct walls are at 200°F, and the thermocouple indicates 310°F. Assuming the convective heat-transfer coefficient between the thermocouple and gas in the duct to be 30 Btu/h ft2 °F, estimate the actual temperature of the gas. The emissivity of the duct walls may be taken as 0.8 and that of the thermocouple as 0.6.
