Question 4:Consider a person standing in a room maintained at20°C at all times. The inner surfaces of the walls, floors, andceiling of the house are observed to be at an average temperature of 12°C in winter and 23°C in summer. Determine therates of radiation heat transfer between this person and the surroundingsurfaces in both summer and winter if the exposedsurface area, emissivity, and the average outer surface temperatureof the person are 1.6 m2, 0.95, and 32°C, respectively.
