Radiation from the head is a major source of heat loss from the human body. Model a head as a 20-cm-diameter, 20-cm-tall cylinder with a flat top.
If the body's surface temperature is 36?C, what is the net rate of heat loss on a chilly 7?C day?
All skin, regardless of color, is effectively black in the infrared where the radiation occurs, so use an emissivity of 0.97.
