A thermocouple (0.8-mm-OD) is located horizontally in a large enclosure whose walls are at 37°C. The enclosure is filled with a transparent quiescent gas that has the same properties as air. The electromotive force (emf) of the thermocouple indicates a temperature of 230°C. Estimate the true gas temperature if the emissivity of the thermocouple is 0.8.

GIVEN
• Horizontal thermocouple in a large enclosure
• Thermocouple outside diameter (D) = 0.8 mm = 0.0008 m
• Enclosure wall temperature (Te) = 37°C = 310 K
• Gas is enclosure is quiescent and has the same properties as air
• Thermocouple reading (Ttc) = 230°C = 503 K
• Thermocouple emissivity (?) = 0.8
FIND
• True gas temperature (T?)
ASSUMPTIONS
• Enclosure behaves as a black body
• Conduction along the thermocouple out of the enclosure is negligible
