// Implementation of example 6.7 // Basic and Applied Thermodynamics by P.K.Nag clc clear // T temperature,W work done,Q heat trnsfer.. // Radiation from panel is proportional to area and T2^4 // so if A is area then Q2=K*A*(T2)^4 // for minimum area we differentiate the expression A=W/[K*(T2^3)*(T1-T2)].. // finally the expression for minimum area is Amin=256*W/[27*K*(T1^4)] W=1 // kW K= 5.67*10d-9 // W/(m^2)*(K^4) T1=1000 // K Amin= (256*W*1000)/[27*K*(T1*T1*T1*T1)]; printf("minimum area = %.4f m^2",Amin); // end
