ASSUMPTIONS: (1) Steady-state conditions, (2) Negligible heat transfer to auto interior, (3) Negligible
radiation from atmosphere.
ANALYSIS: (a) Apply an energy balance to the control surfaces shown on the schematic. For an instant

the plate and the air, qconv , and the absorbed solar flux, qS,abs

COMMENTS: By considering radiation emission, Ts decreases, as expected. Note the manner in which
q conv is formulated using Newtons law of cooling; since q conv is shown leaving the control surface, the
