Hi,
Say I have a sphere of radius r that has a constant surface temperature of T_s.
The sphere is surrounded by air at a constant temperature T_amb.
I am interested in the temperature gradient surrounding the sphere.
From the little I know, I think i have to look at the natural convection and radiation.
I can calculate the heat transfer by using Newtons cooling law and the law for radiation,
but I do not know how to calculate the temperature gradient.
Could someone please point me in the right direction?
Much appreciated!
