Heat transfer by radiation
Q = A (T4)
Stefan Boltzmann constant = 5.67 x 10^-8 W/m2-K4
Area A = 4 x 3.14 x R2
= 4 x 3.14 x (6367 km x 1000m/km)2
= 5.092 x 10^14 m2
T1 = 15 + 273 = 288 K
T2 = 17 + 273 = 290 K
Q1 = A (T14)
Q1 = 5.67 x 10^-8 x 5.092 x 10^14 x (2884)
Q1 = 5.67 x 10^-8 x 5.092 x 10^14 x (6879707136)
Q1 = 1.986 x 10^17 W
Q2 = A (T24)
Q2 = 5.67 x 10^-8 x 5.092 x 10^14 x (2904)
Q2 = 5.67 x 10^-8 x 5.092 x 10^14 x (7072810000)
Q2 = 2.042 x 10^17 W
Additional energy radiated = Q2 - Q1
= (2.042 x 10^17) - (1.986 x 10^17)
Q = 5.6 x 10^15 W
% increase = Q x 100 / Q1
= 5.6 x 10^15 x 100 / (1.986 x 10^17)
= 2.82 %
