Two infinitely long plates with surface temperatures maintained at 600 K and 300 K
respectively are placed parallel to each other. Two infinitely long radiation shields are placed
in the evacuated space between these plates. All the surfaces mentioned above are gray and
diffuse and have an emissivity of 0.85. Determine the steady state temperatures of the radiation
shields.
