Heat transfer was not one of my strongest classes and I've been out of school long enough that my text books didn't make it through the 15 moves. Anyway, I seem to be lost on the fundamentals as I search the web for information but here is what I am trying to do:
I have a cylinder (automotive exhaust pipe). I want to know what the temperature of a body would be at various distances from the cylinder and various steady state temperatures of the pipe from radiation only.
I find the simple basic equation q=??AT^4. Applying it for the above problem has be at a loss. So I can solve for q knowing the emissivity of the body, the area of the cylinder, and the surface temperature of the cylinder. Beyond that what formula do I need to plug q unto to find out the temperature of the body?
