Question: A large diffused surface is insulated at the bottom. It is subjected to solar radiation flux of 1200 W/m^2. The surface has alpha of 0.732

A large diffused surface is insulated at the bottom. It is subjected to solar radiation flux of 1200 W/m^2. The surface has alpha of 0.732 to solar irradiation while its alpha to room temperature radiation is 0.3. The surface achieves thermal equilibrium in presence of blowing wind at 300K.

What is the equilibrium surface temperature if the convective hear transfer coefficient is 35 W/m^2.K?
